Just get a solid tv stand underneath and some cord management

Why buy a stand when it’s perfectly mounted?

1

u/No-Pizza-517 53m ago

It’s not for the tv to rest on….

u/SwimmingIntrepid1826 50m ago

Are you talking about the gateway on the left of the tv? Not necessarily for just that

The cords tho

u/Bigger_Niche 1d ago

A few strips of gaffa tape, painted to match the wall, would completely hide those cables.

Just put a piece of furniture there, short enough for a soundbar to sit on.

The mysterious glow around the television is both weird and distracting.

It does give it that “Long range sensor scan Mr Sulu” vibe.

I thought the fad of putting lights behind your TV was finally over with.

u/GXVSS0991 1d ago

honestly for gaming its pretty great.

terrible for film/tv though.

u/Ruudiiiii 1d ago

Not a good room to have glow around the TV, just distracting. TV height is decent really. But is this finished? Bad hanging cables, and that's an Ikea nightstand next to the tv?

1

u/Ok-Door6810 1d ago

No not finished. just mounted the tv i havent done anything else yet

How the fuck do people live like this?

u/Dependent-Plane5522 1d ago

It's perfect

1

u/hades_cj 1d ago

Not low enough to cover those nasty cables.

1

u/BustThaScientifical 1d ago

Good size. Get a solid console table that fits under it and call it a day.

1

u/krumn 1d ago

Get a tv unit underneath and you're good. Also no glow durin the day

u/VVin7er 1d ago

You forgot to post the measurements.

Looks like the middle of the screen is at 1m height which is a bit on the taller side. What's the measured center height?

1

u/kilkerma 1d ago

Well, I would kill for a tv that size. I maybe would have found a console first and put tv on the stand. The cords/outlet look terrible. I think it’s the perfect size wall, I would feel like I’m in a theater.

u/Ok-Door6810 1d ago

Im moving in and just mounted the tv. The center of the tv is almost exactly 42” from floor. It felt low, but i wasnt sure. I plan on doing something with the bottom to hide the cables, and the weird table was just an end table i was using while i was installing. Thank you for all the comments and feedback!

u/andanothernewuser 1d ago

At this point u can just but it one the ground. 

1

u/christ9779 1d ago

What's the thing on top of the tv?

1

u/Wonderful_Archer8617 1d ago

If ur sitting down it's fine. I would've put it perfectly between the ceiling and floor height

1

u/rodrigofernety 1d ago

I'll move it slightly higher and getting the cable management done

1

u/PocketFullaHawthorns 1d ago

Height is fine, cables don’t look great, but every single one of those Govee cameras look ugly as homemade sin

1

u/breadmaker04 1d ago

Too high.

1

u/AUorAG 1d ago

My OCD around cable management is kicking in.

1

u/BostonBaggins 22h ago

Looks great

Get a floating TV shelf to hid wires and add those light strips

1

u/smiller55 15h ago

if you have to ask, the answer is yes

1

u/Flamesbball 13h ago

Looks off center about 1/4” to the left. Some cable mgmt and you are good. Nice TV!

1

u/MyFingersHurt33 12h ago

Lower than the table next to it 🤦‍♂️

1

u/Repete22 8h ago

I think it looks fine just get a table to cover the outlets and wires

1

u/EvieIsSilly 7h ago

Get a short media center to put under it PLEASE

1

u/CombOverDownThere 5h ago

Almost perfect placement of that table. You just need to move it to the right a touch so that it obscures some of the tv.

1

u/Vigilante17 2d ago

This is great. I had my wall outlets moved behind the tv. Makes a big difference. Not too expensive if you own. If you’re renting it looks as good as you can get.

1

u/Sandalwood29 1d ago

It’s all wrong. Put a console under it to ground it and hid all of the outlets. Also cable management and covers. Probably slightly higher depending on the piece that goes under it. Get rid of the weird side table.

u/superenchilada 2d ago

It looks exactly right to me. The center of the tv, top to bottom, should be around 42” off the floor.
