SOLUTION
Make sure your bass module or surround speakers are compatible
with the soundbar (see page 30).
Make sure the software is current in the Bose8 app.
Adjust the bass level using the Bose8 app (see page 23).
Switch to a different source (see page 20).
Make sure that the soundbar's HDMI cable is inserted into a port on
your TV labeled HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel), not
a standard HDMI port. If your TV doesn't have an HDMI eARC port,
connect to the HDMI ARC port. If your TV doesn't have an ARC port,
connect to the soundbar using the optical cable (see page 47).
Disconnect the HDMI cable from your TV's HDMI eARC (or ARC) port
and reconnect it.
Unplug the power cords for the soundbar and optional bass module
or surround speakers, wait 30 seconds, and firmly plug them into the
AC (mains) outlet.
Turn off your TV speakers. Refer to your TV owner's guide.
Decrease your TV volume to its lowest setting.
If the soundbar is connected to your TV's HDMI eARC (or ARC) port,
make sure that Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is enabled in
your TV system menu. Your TV may refer to CEC by a different name.
Refer to your TV owner's guide.
Check the Advanced CEC setting in the Bose8 app. You can
access this option from the Settings menu. For more information,
visit: support.Bose.com/SB550C_BT support.Bose.com/SB550C_BT
Test different sources if available.
Make sure that your TV can output surround sound audio. Refer to
your TV owner's guide.
If the audio is being played from another device, reduce the volume
of that device.
Adjust the bass level using the Bose8 app (see page 23).
Power off your TV speakers. Refer to your TV owner's guide.
Check for sound (see page 48).
