Perlegear Sound Bar Bracket with Adjustable Height (PGSM04B) – 6.8kg, Above or Below TV
Product description
What it is and what it solves
This is a Perlegear sound bar bracket designed to mount a soundbar up to 6.8kg. It offers a clean, versatile way to position audio close to your TV, whether you prefer the soundbar mounted above or below the screen. The slim, all‑metal build and detachable long extension plates help you tailor the gap between TV and speaker for a neater setup and better sound alignment.
How it’s built and how it installs
The bracket uses a robust metal construction and supports a full range of mounting options. Height is adjustable with tool‑free knobs, allowing the extension arms to extend or retract and rotate 360°. This makes it easier to align the soundbar with the TV screen and optimise the listening angle. If your TV already has a wall‑mount, you’ll need to remove that bracket first and then attach the Perlegear bracket to the TV back. Installation is described as straightforward with included hardware and a detailed manual.
Strengths and what stands out
On the plus side, this bracket promises stability for a soundbar up to 6.8kg, which covers a wide range of common models. The 360° swivel on the brackets helps you refine the position so audio lines up with the screen and viewing position. The option to mount above or below the TV is convenient for different room layouts or seating arrangements. The detachable extension plates add flexibility if you need extra clearance or a no‑gap look between TV and soundbar.
Limitations to consider
The product is not a universal fix for every soundbar, so check your model’s weight and mounting pattern to confirm compatibility. If you’re using a tabletop stand, ensure there is enough clearance beneath the TV to accommodate the bracket and soundbar. Some setups may require removal of existing TV brackets before assembly. If you prioritise a compact, low‑profile look, be mindful that extending the arms to achieve precise alignment may increase the distance between the TV and soundbar in certain configurations.
Who it’s for
It suits users wanting a stable, adjustable mounting solution that can be placed either above or below the TV, particularly when aiming for better audio alignment without visible cables. It’s a sensible choice for those with mid‑sized soundbars (up to 6.8kg) and a TV wall mount, cart, or stand that supports additional hardware.
Who it’s not ideal for
If your soundbar is heavier than 6.8kg, or if your TV/stand layout requires a very particular clearance that the extension plates can’t provide, this bracket may not be the best fit. Also, if you prefer a completely fixed arrangement with zero adjustability after installation, a simpler, non‑adjustable bracket might feel restrictive.
When it makes sense to buy
Consider this bracket if you want flexible placement that can be tuned to your viewing position and want to hide cables for a cleaner look. It’s particularly useful when you want close alignment of audio with the TV without altering the TV’s mounting height or sacrificing legroom behind the furniture.
What to review before buying
Double‑check weight limits (up to 6.8kg) and ensure your soundbar’s mounting pattern is compatible. Confirm you have enough clearance under the TV for tabletop setups, and read the manual instructions about removing any existing wall brackets before attaching this unit.
Practical use example
Imagine a typical living room where the sofa is 3 metres from the TV. You install the bracket under the TV and position the soundbar so it sits level with the screen, then fine‑tune the gap by rotating the bracket 360° and adjusting the extension arms. The result is audio that feels pulled into the screen, with less visual clutter and cleaner cable routing.
