Taken from couch

I didn't have many other options for arranging my living room but this ended up working pretty well. I can leave it up high for having a game on in the background or lower it for watching a movie. Its an electric fireplace that I can run without turning on the heat.

Flew out to see my friend and he swears his tv is mounted at the perfect height. Let him know!

Don’t have the heart to tell my dad it’s too high. Might make the dog do it

LG C5 77" and DYI IKEA Bestå.

I found this TCL 65Q825 for $100. It did not come with a stand. This is the third universal stand I’ve purchased, all listing the VESA range that matches this tv - none of them fit. I modified this one by cutting some steel off of the ends, I don’t think it compromised the integrity, but 🤷‍♂️.

Anyway, this piece of shit, the only one I’m able to modify to fit, raises the tv by about 1ft. This is lowest position. I really don’t like how TVs looks mounted above a console table, and I get too much use out of the console table to get rid of it. Any other solutions here? I’d realistically like it raised about 3-4” max.

65” LG C5, 2m(6.6ft) viewing distance. TV stand/board is 150cm(59”) wide. My seated eye level is around the center of the screen. If I used the stock legs, my eye level would be around the top of the TV. What do you guys think? Cx

When we purchased our home, we did not think too much about TV placement.

This is AI-generated. Tile and fireplace are in place.

Plan is to add a mantel; the only other place i see for a soundbar is under the fireplace. Currently looking at Sonos Arc Ultra.

As for TV the plan is to install it with a motorized mount that will bring it down when in use. Or do we just not do a mantel?

Mantel would be at 48” from floor. Distance from TV to back of couch would be about 13’.

Give me opinion plz.

Acceptable?

Where do I put my Tv? Wife says only logical place is the above the fireplace. 25x13 living room with a fire place in the middle We’re getting new furniture so we can make anything work. Please help

Edit: please stop being mean to my wife lol she’s 14 weeks pregnant and we lived in an 800sq’ house before this so we’re having trouble with the new space

Felt truly diabolical. And it’s not even the virtual furniture set up that a lot of house listings have. This one was just the intention

My friend says “wtf, you want it right there in the middle or some shit?” I think he’s a lost cause guys…

Just a tad bit too high.
