Does the SoundBar have any other installation methods other than attaching to the TV?

How do I attach my LCR-DM speakers to the Flat Panel?

The Thin Universal Mounting Bracket (Thin UMB) in your LCR-DM box. These are pieces of Aluminum and Steel, which are intended to mount between the back of the television set and the television wall mount (Articulating Arm, Tilt or Static Mounts, etc.). If the television is not to be wall mounted the Thin UMB may be attached directly to the back of the television using the wall bracket mounting points. Using the supplied screws and washers, attach the two Brackets to the rear of the display. The Sliding Arms of the Thin UMB then adjusts to fit the width of your flat panel display set and provides mounting points for the Main LCR Bracket. For diagrams and details please refer to Page 4 of the LCR-DM Installation Guide.
