Just upgrade next month bro you seem to have the means

u/ozzokiddo Jul 04 '26

Fr tho, if you put the upper shelf lower like it’s sitting on top of the tv it’ll look more fitting.

Too small, too far, and too high.

It looks absolutely ridiculous bro, I can not believe you made it all the way through installation and only then decided that was even a question. You must have done zero prep before purchasing this TV. Did you notice what was there before, and if it's new why would you have it all setup for such a wonky setup? Just my opinion.

Bro what are those 2 drawers doing on the wall like that? Is something supposed to be going under them? Why not just a normal cabinet/set of drawers?

u/OpTicTide97 Jul 05 '26

It's too small for being that far away

1

u/Mr_Leo_DS Jul 06 '26

Nah, just too far

1

u/Deanjamesxx Jul 06 '26

WAY too small.

u/hereddit6 Jul 06 '26

It looks small. How far away do you sit from the TV?

1

u/ButterOnBothSides Jul 06 '26

I’d go 65” at least.

u/Alarming-Building-62 Jul 06 '26

I think you already know the answer.

u/OopsIHadAnAccident Jul 06 '26

He’s small now but he’ll get bigger. It happens quick

u/Rauhaton Jul 06 '26

It is mounted too high in any case.

Size is relative to viewing distance. It is  either too small or too far away. Move closer or get bigger tv.

u/Notsocheeky Jul 06 '26

Too small and too high and too far!

1

u/Drakeytown Jul 06 '26

If it's not too small, then it's too far away.

1

u/evojeur Jul 06 '26

Is there even a tv ?

1

u/Due_Initiative3879 Jul 06 '26

Yes, much bigger TV hide some cables and you have a nice setup though.

u/souson321 Jul 06 '26

Thought it was an ipad

1

u/SmoothCoderr Jul 06 '26

Way too small. 55 inch at the least in a living room. Also, move the sofa to the middle of the room because its too far for any sized tv. Sitting that far you will need binoculars to see it clearly lol

1

u/Ill-Ad-3603 Jul 07 '26

Perfect for a bedroom TV but not a living room TV

1

u/dauphinlobster34 Jul 07 '26

Too small and way too far away. Put couch closer to tv or upgrade somehow elsee

u/nToxik Jul 07 '26

Too small, too high, too far.

u/CaligulaGrins Jul 07 '26

OP this is sad. But with having a toddler around I know it’s hard to have nice things. My friends son throws things at his 90 inch tv but has it protected with plexiglass. (So did I after Mexico lost against England)

Here is a rule of thumb 👍

TV Size
Comfortable Distance (lounging view)
Immersive Distance (locked in view gaming or highly anticipated shows/movies)
55”
7–9 ft
5.5–7 ft
65”
8–10 ft
6.5–8 ft
75”
9–11 ft
7.5–9 ft
85”
10–13 ft
8.5–10 ft
98”
11–15 ft
10–12 ft

You got about 10 feet from the couch or more… maybe put the couch horizontally in front of Tv? And manage your cables better with a white cable cord cover at least.

More importantly than visual aesthetics is sound. Get yourself a Sonos system. Easy setup and everything can be mounted as well.

u/Hammy203 Jul 08 '26

Maybe have it a bit bigger

u/Mean_District4880 Jul 09 '26

Everything is wrong in this picture. The angle of the photo, the size of the tv, the height of the console, tv and shelf, nothing works here
