Perlegear Soundbar Mount with Adjustable Height, Sound bar Mount up review
Quick take
The Perlegear Soundbar Mount PGSM04B is a metal soundbar bracket built for stability (up to 15 lbs) and easier alignment (adjustable height with tool-free knobs). It lets you mount your soundbar above or below the TV for a cleaner look, but you must confirm your soundbar’s screw/bolt compatibility and under-TV clearance, especially on larger TVs.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Adjustable height for alignment: tool-free knobs rotate 360° and help extend or retract the arms to dial in the TV-to-soundbar gap.
- Supports up to 15 lbs: strong metal construction for reliable holding.
- Flexible placement: designed to mount the soundbar under or above your screen (with size-based guidance).
- Installation is generally straightforward: multiple installation options and an instruction manual are included.
Cons
- Hardware compatibility matters: the soundbar screws only work with specific sizes (M4x16mm, M5x16mm, M6x16mm) or keyhole bolts.
- Under-TV mounting needs clearance: if your setup has limited space beneath the TV, you may need to mount above instead.
- Some users report missing-fit hardware issues: a review indicated washers supplied may not match the smaller-screw scenario, requiring extra parts to finish the install.
What buyers think
Buyer-review evidence is strong on the basics: the mount is often described as sturdy, easy to install, and capable of producing a clean, seamless look. Multiple reviews highlight the adjustable range as helpful for getting the soundbar level and properly spaced relative to the TV. Installers also tend to mention that the kit is usable without excessive trouble, and that it can be a practical alternative to a more complex or awkward mounting approach (especially when you want the soundbar attached to the TV setup).
The main recurring theme that can affect outcomes is fitment and completeness. At least some shoppers run into hardware size/washer compatibility when using smaller screw options, which suggests you should check your soundbar’s mounting pattern and plan for possible extra small hardware if your soundbar’s spec is on the edge of what the kit includes.
How this soundbar mount fits into your setup
This is a soundbar mounting bracket intended to hold a soundbar against the back of a TV or with your TV setup (such as a compatible TV wall mount, TV cart, or tabletop stand). It is designed around one core goal: getting your soundbar positioned close to the screen for better alignment and a more streamlined entertainment setup.
Key practical factor: the mount’s adjustable height lets you fine-tune the spacing between the TV and soundbar. That matters when your soundbar’s mounting points do not perfectly line up with the “ideal” position or when you want to avoid an awkward-looking gap.
Key specifications that affect compatibility
Weight capacity and build
- Maximum soundbar weight: up to 15 lbs
- Construction: strong metal construction for stability
Mounting style and placement
- Mounting type: wall mount style (bracket to TV setup)
- Placement options: mount above or below the TV
- TV-size guidance: for TVs under 83 inches, you can typically choose above or below; for TVs larger than 83 inches, mounting above may be required due to bracket length.
Soundbar screw and bolt compatibility
- Compatible screw sizes: M4x16mm, M5x16mm, M6x16mm
- Alternative option: keyhole bolts
If your soundbar uses different hardware sizes or a different mounting pattern, you may not be able to attach it without sourcing the right parts.
Adjustable height: what it actually gives you
The adjustable-height design uses tool-free knobs that rotate 360° and extend or retract extension arms. In everyday terms, that means you can usually get the soundbar level, centered, and spaced the way you want without taking everything apart.
It also supports the common goal of reducing visual clutter compared with placing the soundbar on furniture or leaving it slightly offset from the TV.
Installation experience (and where it can get tricky)
Many buyers describe the install as straightforward and emphasize that the included hardware and manual make it easier to get it mounted quickly. The typical flow is to attach the brackets to the soundbar, secure the mount to the back of the TV, then position or hang the TV in your intended viewing location.
Where you should slow down: compatibility and clearance. If you plan to mount the soundbar under the TV, make sure there is enough clearance beneath the TV for the soundbar and bracket to fit properly. Also verify your soundbar’s mounting screws and plan around the specific M4/M5/M6 sizes supported by the system.
Pros and cons recap for buying decisions
- Best for: shoppers with a soundbar under 15 lbs who want an above-or-below TV mounting solution and need adjustable spacing to get the soundbar lined up.
- Also a good fit if: you want a cleaner visual setup than a shelf, and you prefer a mount that can adapt to different TV placements (within the TV-size guidance).
- Who should be cautious: buyers whose soundbars use mounting hardware outside M4x16, M5x16, M6x16, or keyhole bolts, and anyone with limited clearance for under-TV mounting.
Alternatives to consider
If you are comparing options, choose alternatives based on three things: (1) weight capacity that matches your soundbar, (2) screw pattern compatibility, and (3) whether your TV size and mounting position allow under-TV clearance. In practice, some mounts are more “universal” in hardware support, while others provide stronger adjustable spacing. If your soundbar’s mounting points are not a match for the M4/M5/M6 or keyhole bolt options, you may need a different bracket system designed around your soundbar’s exact mounting style.
Verdict
The Perlegear Soundbar Mount PGSM04B is a solid choice when you want a stable soundbar bracket with real adjustment capability, especially if you are trying to dial in the gap between your TV and soundbar for a cleaner look. It’s worth it for shoppers whose soundbars fit the specified screw sizes or keyhole bolt setup and who can confirm clearance for under-TV placement. If your soundbar hardware does not match or your space under the TV is tight, you may need to adjust your plan to an above-TV configuration or look for a different mount system.
FAQ
Will this mount work with my soundbar?
It supports mounting with M4x16mm, M5x16mm, and M6x16mm screws, or with keyhole bolts. Check your soundbar’s mounting hardware and weight to confirm it stays within the 15 lbs limit.
Can I mount the soundbar above or below the TV?
Yes. For TVs under 83 inches, you can typically choose above or below. For TVs larger than 83 inches, mounting above may be needed due to bracket length.
How much adjustment does the mount provide?
It includes adjustable height via tool-free knobs, with rotating knobs (360°) and extension arms that let you extend or retract to set the spacing between the TV and soundbar.
Does the under-TV setup require clearance?
Yes. For tabletop TV stands especially, you should confirm there is enough clearance underneath the TV so the bracket and soundbar can fit properly.
Is installation difficult?
Most buyers describe installation as straightforward and quick with the included instructions and hardware. Fitment can be the main challenge if your soundbar’s screw size or washers do not align with what the kit supports.
What’s the maximum soundbar weight it can hold?
The mount is rated for soundbars up to 15 lbs.
