The bar down the middle is driving us nuts. How would you eliminate the interference?

We got a cheap foam pad to lay down with usually a layer or two or sheet/sleeping bag makes it pretty cozy. When two people are in you sink in a little bit so it's like two separate beds kind of- I absolutely love this thing, the bar was no big deal to me

We have the same problem. We tried many different thin air beds due to the lack of headroom if you used a regular air bed. We have since switched back to a regular tent.

All you can do is add memory foam to it, I got it for my son who camps a lot, He sleeps on one side and puts his clothes on the other side...

I have the same bar. I hooked up the bar to tv as instructed and hooked up the DVD player as instructed. Be sure to shut the sound off on TV to use external sound.

If you require a longer coax than that which came in the box (12 feet), you might consider buying an amplifier to help it out. Otherwise, placing it horizontally near a wall closest to your weakest stations should do the trick.

It's probably just because of interference. Probably a metal door or other shield like that. Mine works at or more feet.

I don't have much room for the center channel. I have it just behind the plasma kept on a stand. I don't see any interference, so assume there is no problem due to the shielding. I might be missing little on the sound, since the speakers are behind the TV, but these sound really good for its size.

I have the $100 vizio sound bar and it actually blocks the bottom inch or two of this tv. This tv is mounted REALLY low while on the stand. That said, its so wide, if you have your sound bar situated centered, the remote eye on the tv ill be about 8 inches to the left so it won't block it

No easy answer here but I did have to dial in quite a bit of adjustment that I was supposed to clip off. You could always try it and return it if it didn't work. I have a pretty regular specialized bar set.

Super easy. Remove the middle bar in 60 secs...slide three pieces under the bes.

I don't have a sound bar in front of the unit, but I can guess this would cause problems with the remote. The model I have has a very specific spot you need to point the remote. If I don't have the remote aimed correctly then the tv doesn't respond. The sensor seems to be on the lower left of the screen so you might be okay but if the sound bar blocks line of sight to this location from any spot in the room I would guess that this would definitely cause a problem. Caveat: The sensitivity of the remote seems abnormal so I might have a bad/weak sensor in the TV I got. Your results may very, good luck.

The bar is probably install upside down. Try reinstalling it the opposite way.

The air flow from the windshield is the culprit. You can try to move the front rack forward or backward. It might attenuate the vibration but I doubt that it'll disappear completely. All racks whose bars are square have the same problem. A friend added a plastic deflector to the front bar and it has reduced the noise significantly. Good luck!

Try making adjustments to the main unit by reducing the sound volume and/or other adjustment buttons.

If you are connected to a cable box, there should be an optical connection there. Once connected, you should lower the volume on the TV to zero so sound will only come from the soundbar.

Take a pin and poke the ceiling to prevent cutting any cross bars. Leave extra roof liner to cover the frame. Use plenty of sealent. I used my drill & a sheet metal nibbler

The only way to disable it is to have it on the off position.. hope that helps

Anthony - as I was researching this question when I started using my receiver, the answer was - horizontally. Make sure you hang it as close to a window as possible. I also found that I had to experiment with the orientation (N/S/E/W) to get the best signal. Where I am located, the south end of my house works best. Hope this helps!

I used the cord provided and was able to figure out a decent method. As someone else already stated, there is no 'right' way, but if you are reasonably handy and use some common sense, you'll get through it. I started at the middle of the crossbar and worked my way around to the back. Then repeated for the other side. The corners are a little challenging. You may want to check YouTube for ideas. Good luck.
