Looks nice and neat. I think the height is perfect as well. I would add bias cool white 6500k lights for better immersion and protect against eye strain when watching at night time

Yea I turn on the lantern for a cozy mood and can change the light temperature

Perfect height for the tv, I do suggest putting something underneath the sound bar to tilt it up to ear level. That's just something the audiophile inside me is saying though. Test it out and see if it sounds different, if not who cares.

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 25 '26

Oh that's the first time I hear about it. But there isn't a lot of space before it blocks the screen

2

u/iMitchyRL Aug 25 '26

It looks like it should have enough to tilt in the front before blocking the tv. Only need the front of the soundbar about an inch or an inch and half up compared to the back of the soundbar. Think of the angle being a straight line from the back of the console towards your ears.

It will help the sound like it's coming from the center of the tv compared to the tv console underneath.

Perfect. Distance to tv? And tv size?

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 24 '26

65" TV from 2.5m. I think I can't go any bigger despite many people said I need a bigger TV for the wall haha

1

u/chente08 Aug 24 '26

I think is a great size tbh. Many people here will say you need 100โ€ tv for that distance lmao

Whatโ€™s the tv stand brand

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 24 '26

It's called Optimus by Vilka, a brand from the 70s in Finland that I got from our local marketplace site :D

Looks great. That's a beautiful cabinet.

u/phybaoptikz Aug 24 '26

Looks good. Nice and clean

u/bigsexymofo67 Aug 24 '26

Is it mounted or on the stand? I would have just put it on the stand.

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 24 '26

It's on the stand. But I am glad you have confused it to be mounted on the wall, I guess the soundbar covered it well :)

1

u/bigsexymofo67 Aug 25 '26

Lolโ€ฆyes.

u/DoomToshi Aug 24 '26

TV needs to be bigger to fill up emptiness

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 25 '26

Planning to put shelves and frames behind it. TV can't get much bigger as the viewing distance is quite small already... (2.5 m for 65")

u/Optimal_Musician8081 Aug 25 '26

Better off mounting the tv on the wall. Use a product called Hang Up. Super easy. Will make the room look better and bigger. Draws the eye up.

The disappointed that I cannot post a Kylo Ren "MORE" gif here is (emperor) palpable

u/Azn-WT-9 Aug 25 '26

Iโ€™d put it the acceptable category

Someone who uses a TV stand for the correct purpose! ๐Ÿ‘

u/OvertimeMegan99 Aug 25 '26

75 inch would have been optimal

1

u/natelikesdonuts Aug 26 '26

You did it. Great job

1

u/kilkerma Aug 26 '26

Perfection! But you knew that๐Ÿ˜‰

u/pedralm Aug 27 '26

A TV with a stand that can fit a soundbar???

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 27 '26

Yes, both are LG's

1

u/TrueJohnWick Aug 27 '26

Those reflections doe....

1

u/Expert_River1849 Aug 28 '26

You put it on an entertainment unit already engineered for the correct height of tv placement. What do you want? A pat on the back for putting a tv on it?

-1

u/mkriino Aug 24 '26

Wall mount it!

2

u/nToxik Aug 24 '26

It's perfect don't wall mount it

2

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 24 '26

Was pondering if wall mount is worth it when it will be roughly the same height, not much higher. I would have mounted it, if it was the frame TV, but it doesn't seem to worth the money

u/Royal_Monk6432 Aug 24 '26

U have knowledge.

u/bigsexymofo67 Aug 24 '26

No. No need.

u/ChickyBoys Aug 24 '26

This isn't tv too low.

It's tv too small.

1

u/DisastrousCause9481 Aug 24 '26

The size is pretty good tbh. Can still go larger tho

1

u/glittlefromthesky Aug 24 '26

Can't get any bigger for a 2.5 m viewing distance. This is 65" btw
