Is it possible to mount a 55" TV high enough to allow a 5" high sound bar beneath it?

My TV is only a 37" (LG) I did a low profile mount for my TV. Only about 4-5" are free above the slot I used for my screen. I think if you used the highest mounting slot on the bracket you should have at least 5-6" of space, depth wise you would have almost 1" of clearance between the post and the back of the TV. Also after almost 2 years I am still happy with the quality of it, very sturdy, more than I needed for a 37" TV but I am glad I have the stand for when I can upgrade to a larger screen

I only have a 40in on it and that would be possible but with a 55 in I would guess no

These units do not have a vertical adjustment. My sound bar will not fit under the TV. Wes

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.

As a soundbar junkie I have owned them all and tried every mounting position that can be done,,,, my feelings are that soundbars almost always sound better mounted above a TV/display. 52" above floor level is not that high at all,,,,, I was experimenting with my Sony CT-100, Sony CT-500 and my Vizio Soundbar w/wireless sub and found one of the BEST spots for mounting was 7' from the floor, at 7' high the sound has nothing to block the reflective sound coming from the soundbar such as curtains, paintings on the wall and such. Each room is different though, but for me the higher I place my soundbars the better they sounded. Cheers Davyo

There is a lot of height adjustment available. I have a 65 inch Samsung mounted, and a Yamaha Sound Bar on the top shelf. There is still 2 inches between the sound bar and and the bottom of the TV. I measure 11 inches from the top shelf to the bottom of the TV.

It is not very high. The height is 5,25 ft with my LCD 50 . it is screwed on the wall and the mount is where the tv bracket is ...

I'd recommend a larger TV console/stand if your space can accommodate it. 55 inches will overhang quite a bit.

As far as I know from having a 55" Samsung TV on the stand that yes a thin sound bar will fit in front of it with no issue.

I would say no. I don't recall any hardware or instructions to do this. My TV is on it's stand and I built a shelf to lift it so the soundbar did not block the remote sensor.

It is possible if the TV has audio output connections and with the right cable/connectors, although soundbars specifically designed for this purpose exist. Although the sound quality is excellent, The high profile of this unit makes it awkward to place in front of a TV.

Hmm, not sure about that. It's pretty solid but I wouldn't go messing with the structural integrity. Because of the space where I am using mine, I actually had to put the sound bar in front of my stand. This blocked the two openings of course, but I purchased a couple pieces of wood, painted them black and put them under my TV's base which raised it up enough to put my cable box and bl-ray on top of the stand, on either side of my TV. Not sure if this would work in your situation.

This soundbar is meant to be placed below the TV especially if your mounting it on the wall. The speakers are positioned to accommodate sound coming up and straight when placed below the tv. It won't sound that great placed above.

I have a 46" and it's about 2 inches shorter than the length of this stand so I'm assuming a 55" will probably exceed the length by a few inches. I have my TV mounted on the wall above the stand but I wouldn't hesitate to set the TV on top as it is very sturdy, heavy and stable. The quality and looks far exceeded my expectations. I'm sure it would handle the weight of the 55" with no problems. Hope that helps!

I think it's a matter of opinion. A 55' "could" overhang a little, or it could come right to the edge, but it depends on the TVs actual width. My 44' fits with plenty of room to spare.Personally I wouldn't hesitate to upgrade to a 55' if it was within my budget, and place it on this exact stand.

I have my 60" TV mounted quite high and there is only 8 1/4 " clearance. It might be possible to mount it a little higher, but every TV is a little different as to where the mounting holes are.

I believe so. I think the brackets on the bottom of the soundbar are meant to used as wall brackets as well.

I suppose you could... As long as the covering allowed sound to travel thru... Problem is there is an infra red remote signal receiver on the unit. It can install within about 3/4 of an inch below the tv.

I found that it was my TV and the specific location that I wanted (above the TV instead of below) that was a stretch. I bet this would work with just about any sound bar.
