Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this soundbar with my caravan's 12V system?

Yes, the Sonic48 operates on 12V DC with 10-18V input range compatibility, specifically designed for caravan and RV electrical systems. The included cigarette adaptor connects to standard 12V sockets, consuming maximum 24W during operation and less than 0.2W in standby mode for minimal battery drain. The AC power adaptor enables mains operation when connected to shore power at caravan parks.

How does the VESA mounting system work?

The included L-type metal brackets mount directly onto your TV's VESA mounting points (the standard screw holes on TV backs), allowing the soundbar to mount cleanly aligned with your TV without requiring separate wall brackets or mounting hardware. This provides integrated appearance perfect for caravan installations where mounting surfaces are limited and clean installations are essential.

What is Bluetooth 5.0 and how does it improve connectivity?

Bluetooth 5.0 provides improved wireless range, faster connection speeds, and more stable audio streaming compared to older Bluetooth versions. You'll experience fewer dropouts, better sound quality, extended range enabling smartphone placement further from the soundbar, and faster pairing with devices for seamless wireless audio streaming in caravan environments.

Can I connect the soundbar to my TV's digital audio output?

Yes, the Sonic48 includes both coaxial and optical digital inputs for connecting to TV digital audio outputs, providing superior sound quality compared to analog connections. Most modern TVs include optical (TOSLINK) or coaxial digital audio outputs - simply connect using the included coaxial cable or use an optical cable (commonly included with TVs) for high-quality digital audio transmission.

What happens when I switch between input sources?

The remote control enables easy switching between Bluetooth, USB, AUX, SD card, coaxial, and optical inputs without disconnecting cables. The soundbar remembers the last-used input source and automatically reconnects to paired Bluetooth devices when powered on, providing convenient operation without requiring manual input selection every time you use different audio sources.
