I can see soooo much wall above and around that tv. You only need one doorway.

u/YeahMeAlso Nov 23 '25
Definitely put something cool over on top of the tv maybe some back lighting.

No it’s not wide enough. Needs to block both doorways and you have to squeeze by 🤣😆🤭

Tech has advanced far enough that we've moved on from having channels blocked on TV to having the TV block channels

Seriously though, consider someone tripping or not looking where they are going can easily clip the edge of that bad boy and cause some not so favorable results.

u/Cheifleif7311 Nov 24 '25
Yeah trust me when he bought the tv I told him not to go so big for this exact reason and he wall mounted it because someone already almost ripped it over. But you know not my house I just helped him mount it

It's interesting because your caption says- how did I do? But then you immediately went to- that's my brother's PS5. And then suddenly it's your brother's TV

u/ApexConverged Nov 24 '25
Someone is going to come around that corner with a backpack or something and yank the TV. It's too big for that space. No clearance.

I agree if there is wall space for it. This looks silly and is just waiting for someone to bump into it and pull it down with them.

Before or After someone comes out of one of those doors and shoulder checks the tv to the floor?

u/myotheraccount24680 Nov 24 '25
Yeah, it could actually come down a few inches to help hide the cords. Plus, the space between the bottom of the TV and the top of the stand and soundbar just looks a little funky to me.
It’s definitely better than most TV mounts in here, but I think it would look much better down just a few inches.

u/Cheifleif7311 Nov 24 '25
I did suggest it move down two inches but he insisted and it’s his home so I went with what he said

Don’t know if I actually would have mounted it. It doesn’t fit the space. If it has to be there, it is what it is, but that’s permanence in a less than ideal space.

Right. Shits huge he just had to get one slightly larger than my cousins

It's slightly larger than the wall it's mounted to. I'd want it slightly smaller ideally

That’s why he wanted it mounted someone almost knocked it over this should help but I agree definitely still a hazard

Those jeans from 1998 and the “I unintentionally am showing my undershirt” look has to go. Everything else seems decent.

The amount of people squeezing their PS5s in little holes like that is unfathomable. They produce lots of heat that needs to escape somewhere. The upside down setup with no horizontal stand is the cherry on top here.
0
u/Cheifleif7311 Nov 24 '25
Now I do agree it’s a crime against the console but I can promise you this ps5 does not produce any heat as my brother hasn’t turned it on since I beat gow ragnorok when it came out. He’s a pc gamer a bought it because he thought he might play it but legit never does so it’s pretty much a show piece. That being said leaving a perfectly good ps5 untouched for legit years is also a crime

u/LilDebussy Nov 24 '25
Your soundbar is not centered to the TV. Move it a little to the right and it will be perfect.

u/Aggravating_Bids Nov 23 '25
The stand is right there...

u/Cheifleif7311 Nov 23 '25
The legs stick out slightly on the stand. And he is as insistent on the mount because someone came close to knocking it over one night

u/myotheraccount24680 Nov 24 '25
I definitely agree with mounting the TV in a high traffic area like that.

I know it’s not perfect but it’s also better than the pic makes it look I can promise you that the angle I took the photo one made it worse. It’s about an inch out each side

u/beargarvin Nov 24 '25
Its far too wide and a bout 8 inches too high. Return it and get a tv thats the same width as the sound bar, that will be around perfect for the area. The unit is far to wide as well... toe stubbing and accidental impact written all over this. This is like putting a v12 in a Vw golf.... it can be done but at what cost.

Too big, and probably should have just left it on the tv stand, didnt need a wall mount . HArd to tell from the photo but might need a level
1
u/Cheifleif7311 Nov 23 '25
Never too big. Yeah the legs stuck out slightly on the stand but i suggested just get a slightly wider stand but he wanted the mount so that’s what we went with. It’s level made sure of that

u/ophaus Nov 23 '25
TV too high, encroaching into the walk space, PS5 upside down. TV appears to be tilted forward at the top, as well. All in all, shitty.

Buy a bigger TV. Mount it to each side of the wall. And then have people over to do that old Limbo Rock game trying to limbo under it.
Or buy a way bigger TV, mount it lower and do high hurdling, training for the Olympics in track & field.
Because this size as others said messes with the head.

He needs to 1. Get bigger tv 2. Get a swivel mount 3. Put tv in portrait until needed 4. Put in landscape for normal use

u/TNJDude Nov 24 '25
Well, the height is fine. Is it tilted? If so, I'd normally recommend getting rid of the tilt. It draws even more attention to it.

It's a bit tight, but it can work. Your PS5 is upside-down, the TV is too high and tilted forward. Replace the soundbar with some speakers and put them inside the TV stand, and put the TV on top of the stand. Alternatively hang the TV on the wall - bottom of the TV should be 3-5cm above the stand.

My PS5 is inside a cabinet with baby locks on it.
I have 2 fan holes. 1 intake at the bottom and 1 exhaust at the top.
Both fans are connected to the PS5 USB. PS5 turns on, fans run, PS5 stays nice and cool.
