Sound bar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound easy to connect and setup. Problem is there is no available mounting system to mount/suspend under a tv due to the spacing holes distance. Sony should make an appropriate mount or adjust the mounting holes to accommodate a “universal” mount

Posted .Hi MarkG,
Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the HTA5000. We're glad that you like the sound quality of the soundbar and had an easy time setting it up. We also appreciate your feedback about the mounting holes.
Full operation is not guaranteed when using third-party wall mount brackets. For optimum performance, it is recommended to use the supplied wall mounting brackets of the soundbar. Please refer to this link for more information:
