Can ZVOX 325 be mounted above the TV? I have my 46 inch on the mantel and don't have enough room for the sound cabinet.

Thanks for the info. I have thought of placing the Zvox next to the TV, but that may not give good surround sound. I have searched Zvox 550, it is only 3 1/2 inchs thick could place TV on it, a little more costly though. The TV is already higher than I like. By the reviews, Zvox seems to be very good.

If you look at the dimensions of the 3xx series, they run about 14 to 16 inches deep and are normally placed on a table or a shelf directly under the TV. A Soundbar (by Zvox or any other manufacturer) can be mounted directly above your TV. The Zvox sound bars are about 6" deep, but you need a way to support its weight (15 to 25 lbs plus depending upon the model). Zvox can supply an optional mounting bracket (don't know what it would cost). BTW, the Zvox top of line soundbar (model 425) got excellent reviews and was comparable to a $1500 Yamaha soundbar.

I am considering the 325 and had considered placing it next to the TV as I have space there. From what you said this would bae a bad move. I am not in a position to purchase an HDTV now - we have a good, but very heavy old SONY which I fear is too heavy. I can build a supporting unti to place the 325 in and then set the sony on top. Do you think this would have any negaative affect on the 325 sound quality? Thanks very much for any thoughts you may have.cassocala

Not sure if you are still waiting on a responce, but I just bought the 46" tv today and the first thing I did was mount the tv. You just have to make sure you get the VESA 300 for the tv. If you get a big enought mount it will work fine.

My 46" tv ( you measure diagonally ) is actually 42" long, leaving approx. 6.5" extending over each end. To improve stability, I moved the set all the way to the rear of the heater top, which also allowed me to place my sound bar, in front of the tv & on the top as well. Works for me, and the whole unit is on a rug. No problem here..........

Sure if you have a flat place to set it... the different size feet are so it fits over the TV stand base and rests on either side of it. I ended up mounting ours to the wall up higher than the TV, sounds good but know that it's hard to see the lighted icons on the buttons when up there... but then, they are pretty much impossible to see from your viewing spot even when the sound bar is right in front.... Best,

Even if you adjust the shelves; the 40inch sound bar would not fit but it will fit on top on the shelf in front of the TV. That is how I have mine...Hope this helps

As a soundbar junkie I have owned them all and tried every mounting position that can be done,,,, my feelings are that soundbars almost always sound better mounted above a TV/display. 52" above floor level is not that high at all,,,,, I was experimenting with my Sony CT-100, Sony CT-500 and my Vizio Soundbar w/wireless sub and found one of the BEST spots for mounting was 7' from the floor, at 7' high the sound has nothing to block the reflective sound coming from the soundbar such as curtains, paintings on the wall and such.Each room is different though, but for me the higher I place my soundbars the better they sounded.CheersDavyo As a soundbar junkie I have owned them all and tried every mounting position that can be done,,,, my feelings are that soundbars almost always sound better mounted above a TV/display. 52" above floor level is not that high at all,,,,, I was experimenting with my Sony CT-100, Sony CT-500 and my Vizio Soundbar w/wireless sub and found one of the BEST spots for mounting was 7' from the floor, at 7' high the sound has nothing to block the reflective sound coming from the soundbar such as curtains, paintings on the wall and such.Each room is different though, but for... » Read More As a soundbar junkie I have owned them all and tried every mounting position that can be done,,,, my feelings are that soundbars almost always sound better mounted above a TV/display. 52" above floor level is not that high at all,,,,, I was experimenting with my Sony CT-100, Sony CT-500 and my Vizio Soundbar w/wireless sub and found one of the BEST spots for mounting was 7' from the floor, at 7' high the sound has nothing to block the reflective sound coming from the soundbar such as curtains, paintings on the wall and such.Each room is different though, but for me the higher I place my soundbars the better they sounded.CheersDavyo « Show Less

I just would not consider buying this. There are plenty of others on the market that are much less expensive. Yes, you could above the TV, just mount whichever you buy then try a few different angles starting with aiming the device towards your ear when you are sitting. Hope this helps.

I tried having the ZVOX mini just below and to the right of the TV. It was in an armoire. It did not sound as good as when we put the ZVOX on top of the armoire. It was such a HUGE difference in sound. I was going to send it back until it got put on top. I purchased this because I have ordered a Samusung 32" LED and it is super thin and I know the speakers are going to be horrid. I currently have an older Samsung 32" LCD 720p and it even enhances it. The movies I watch have so much more depth and bass. If I would have known it was not going to work in one of the premade slots in my armoire, I probably would have gone with a bigger footprint model.

I do.The speakers take up the bottom part of the TV.Just make sure that you have enough width on the entertainment center.This set I believe is 30" wide. So make sure you have at least 32" available.Great set. You'll love it.

I am not sure, I don't have my tv mounted. I think if you have long enough bolts to go through all the hardware it shouldn't be a problem. I have mine mounted on the top instead of the bottom as shown. When mounted to the tv there is about a 1/2" of the bracket sticking out, it is L shaped with it flat against the tv. I really like mine, it has placed the center speaker where I wanted it without blocking my 3D sensor.

Mrs. C.I am using it with a Panasonic 46" television. The sound bar is 40" wide by itself, so measure your available space in front of the TV. The bass unit can go on the floor or behind the TV. Dan Hart

I have not heard the 325, so I would be speculating (nor do I know the size and configuration of your room). By all accounts the 325 should give you pretty impressive sound. Just remember that none of the Zvox models give you theater (5.1 or higher) surround sound (although there is "phasecue" circuitry to help open up the sound). Zvox claim to fame is solid sound and quality components with minimal setup. The amplifier is the same as on the 550 and so is the subwoofer (at least the size of the subwoofer). The only difference I see are the drivers: three 3.25" drivers for the 325 and five 2" drivers for the 550. The 550 does go down to 45 Hz vs 63 Hz on the 325 (meaning a bit better bass response). You can check out the reviews here on Amazon. The 5xx series is made to set your TV upon (up to 90 lbs), which is why I decided to buy it rather than their soundbars or the 3xx series.

I am using a 46 inch TV and I have about 6 inches between the bottom of the TV and the top shelf while I am using highest setting. I guess you could go higher but then you would only be using one bracket and it may not be stable. Anyone only using 1 bracket and going higher?

Hi Bruce, the GreatCo 50" Wall Mount Fireplace has a bottom vent heater, so mounting a tv above the unit should not be an issue.

It is a sturdy, well build speaker. Depending on the size of the TV probably ok for up to 32", over that it would probably be unstable. I mounted my TVv with a good Sanus wall mount. They are the best around and Amazon has the best price on them.

If you have the room they make. Shelf that will clip onto the top of the tv . Or just get a wall mount . Unit is awesome

Confused. So you basically have a 40" wide hallway and you want to mount the TV at one end? I'll try to answer your question if you can word it better.
