How high is the TV raised? I was wondering how high the bottom of the TV is from the top of the stand. I have a 50 inch Samsung Plasma. I need to put my center channel speaker on the top of the stand. The speaker is about 6 and 1/2 inches tall. Does anyone know if the TV will clear the center speaker or not? Thanks.

How high does the top of the screen end up being, in your case? Maybe a better technicalt question would be how high is the lowest set of mounting holes? Then I could measure from the top of my tv to the bottom set of holes on the TV to find the total mounting height.

How high is the center of the TV (or the brackets) from the ground? Is the height adjustable?

I am using a 46 inch TV and I have about 6 inches between the bottom of the TV and the top shelf while I am using highest setting. I guess you could go higher but then you would only be using one bracket and it may not be stable. Anyone only using 1 bracket and going higher?

Mary, I currently have my monitors at about 3.5 inches from my desk to the bottom of my monitor...however you can adjust the height of you monitors as you build the stand. I have my stand built with the braket about half way up. You could easily adjust that to be about 3-4 inches higher (it really is about 6 inches to the top of the stand but that would make me nervous). Hope this is helpful...!!!

Yes, we have our 55" TV sitting on top of the unit. Only the unit is attached to the wall. WE LOVE this set up. However, keep in mind that you will have a lot of cords and cables coming out of the bottom and going to the power strip or wall outlet. We elected to lay our tall speakers down under component cabinet which covered the problem a little. Then, I lined the remaining space with artificial flowers and greens. You may elect to place the component unit lower on the wall but you will still have lots of cords to deal with unless you don 't care about seeing all those power cables hanging around.

I had the same problem until I found this stand on display with the 5271 on it. http://www.allyourfurniture.com/ayf/default_en/item.php?selected_item=62676 I purchased that from a local retailer during a sale for $154. It includes a mount so you can hang your LCD or Plasma without damaging your wall. The black glass and the piano black finish of the front match the gloss black of the bezel very well. The best "feature" is if you put your center channel on the top shelf where the TV normally sits, it works well and does not take up any additional shelf space. The stand appears to be of good build quality but did have some scuffs and scratches on the shelf supports. Luckily the shelves cover these flaws.

There are 4 rows of holes on the stand, so you can attach either to the top 2 rows, the middle 2 rows, or the bottom 2 rows. The screws appeared to be centered in the main horizontal section that the TV attaches to. The "center" of the lowest position (between the lowest set of holes and the second lowest set of holes) is 15.75 inches from the surface the stand is resting on. Our TV is currently at the highest position, and the 2 vertical bars end at 26.5" above the table. Our TV extends 2" above that. If we were to move it to the lowest position, it would be 3.25" lower. Hope that helps. Looks like it will depend on your TV a little and where the screws holes are for attaching it to the stand.

I own a 50" insignia which heated up as you had stated. This tv does slightly heat up, but nothing compared to my older plasma.

I have 60" TV mounted which is about 33" in height. I still have 12" space between TV's bottom edge and Top shelf. I have my central speaker and Kinect on it.

Currently on a 52". Volume is volume. I don't see a why the size tv matters. It can get loud and it is clear. Enhances experience with any tv because TV speakers suck

Hello. I have it in a similar sized room and on the merits of performance, no, it is appropriate and works well. The only gripe/issue I have overall is this center channel speaker is MUCH larger than I anticipated. You need to match it above a TV no smaller than 65"; It needs to be mounted above the TV or if your TV itself is mounted, ensure you have ample room beneath your TV. In general it isn't as eye-appealing as I would have imagined but in terms of performance, I have mine set with Yamaha 7.1 entertainment system and it is clean and crisp for a center channel! Hope that helps! Hello. I have it in a similar sized room and on the merits of performance, no, it is appropriate and works well.

I have a 32 and can see maybe an inch along the bottom. Might be something you could bring down a little as there is some excess asking the top. To be honest it doesn't bother me and neither me or my husband are real good with that stuff. Just happy the tv is still on the wall :)

That will depend on your TV. My Panasonic plasma 50" can have from 1/2" to 6" from base to the TV bottom. It is adjustable.

I am sorry, I do not know. The description only gives you details on the size of the TV (I have a 47" LCD). Plasma TV's are heavier, but I would recommend to contact the manufacture to get that information. When I spoke to them they were very helpful. Good luck!...

Dear John,From the BDI instructions: NOTE: There are several mounting-height positions to choose from on 3" increments. In general, for larger TV's (54" - 60") select a higher set of mounting holes, smaller TV's (40"- 46") select a lower set of mounting holes. This means that for your size Television it would need to mount at the very top of the height of the furniture, which is 60.25" high. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

I have 9 inches of space between the top of the stand and the bottom of my TV (60" Samsung). The center shelf is adjustable, I currently have it in the center spot, can go up or down an inch, and I have 9 inches of clearance on the bottom and 6.5 inches on the shelf. Hope that helps.

I have an entertainment center that is 37 inches high. My flat screen TV is 23 x 39 inches. So the top of the stand is around 60 inches high. If the height of your TV is 50 inches high, I doubt it.

I use it with a 47" LCD TV and there does not seem to be any trouble supporting the TV. A newer LED/LCD would probably be lighter and a plasma would be heavier. Check that the dimensions of the HDTV stand will fit the riser stand (mine fit perfectly). There is no problem with the HDTV itself reaching out beyond the stand. Of course, who knows what would happen if you had a major earthquake or something but I am not worried. I assume the soundbar is not really related to the stand, you are just explaining why you want to use the stand.
