Need ideas mounting LCD TV *Update-installed*
I'm getting a 37" and can't mount it on the wall with my current entertainment center. It's also too large to fit in the middle TV section of the center. What I was thinking is attaching a cantilever mount to one of the uprights of the entertainment center (it's pretty large). The TV would stick out slightly past everything. All of the mounts I see are designed to be installed on a wall, into studs. Would I be able to get away with mounting it this way? I have never mounted a large TV like this so I could use some input.

I've never seen an HD broadcast before and it's ------- awesome. The built in QAM tuner this thing has picks up most of the digital channels and all the on demand channels. I was watching some porn last night and saw someone rewinding it back to a certain part and watching it a few times, I love this ----!

Jon, with the stupid cheap prices and garbage quality of chinese furniture, I vote don't hang it on chinese furniture/get new chinese furnature.

Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV
The entertainment center is angled in a corner right now. After some thinking, I'm just going to put it flat against a wall and put the cantilever mount on the wall directly behind the TV hole, and have the TV in the same spot but with less worry O0

Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV
look in best buy,not online but in the stores. in the back they got a whole bunch of setups for hanging the tv. when i bought my lcd i went to circuit city and they didn't have ---- and even the manufacturer wall mount was crap best buys was better.
there is one that swings like an arm i'm sure there is one long enough to clear it. if you find that the other setup won't work |
Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV
Best buy would rape
I got an OmniMount Cantilever for $50 off ebay and they retail for about $200. |
Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV

Good job.
Bestbuy is the rapinist mofos when it comes to wallmounts. Walmart had the exact same ---- for half as much, and they are even cheaper online. I just got one of those $100 tv stand things from walmart and popped the 50" plasma up on it. Works just fine and is at a good height. Oh yeah, I prefer LCD. The LCD effect where it's kind of reddish in one corner and greenish in the other , depending on your angle, is annoying, but the brightness is top notch. I love the contrast and viewing angle of a plasma but damn it will heat up a ------- room quick, and the burn in is quite annoying. Haven't had any of mine get perma-burn, but between scenes you can see the image slightly burned in. |
Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV *Update-installed*
Yea the only thing I know about plasma is it tends to have deeper or darker black areas, but this one looks as good as anything really.
Final four in HD tonight :6 HD gives me a boner now. |

HD nature programming FTW! Seriously, Discovery HD should play in every TV showroom, its really mesmorizing.

Hopefully the verbatim brand will work out for you. If they don't, get a new burner :P And yeah, sometimes you have to switch between analog and hd so people can really see how big of a difference it is. It's like WHOA |
Re: Need ideas mounting LCD TV *Update-installed*
Ive got the same tv. The only thing i dont like about it is that it takes a long time to turn on. It doesnt really bother me but some people think its broken or something.
