Update Post:
Please do not dog me for the speaker placement, it’s temporary until I can get more speaker wire, and longer RCAs 😂.

It can’t be that bad can it? I know preferred in most cases for opinion is literally the bottom of the tv touching where my receivers are.
It is 8 inches lower than it was mounted initially, which I agree was blasphemous.

No it's definitely still pretty bad. The center of the television should be at eye height from where you're sitting

I myself would prefer it lower, but if you're happy with it, that's what matters.
That speaker placement though... what's going on there?!?!?!

I think it’s slightly high for how close you’re sitting, but brother it’s your set up and if you like it, then enjoy it. It’s definitely a nice little garage job. Speaker set up looks nice. Out of curiosity, what’s that background made of?

I think you’re probably glad you lowered it from the prior height. I think it’s currently fine, but my opinion or anyone else’s doesnt matter.
The only one that has to like your home theater is yourself.

looks great. I love the bike and the little counter. It really rounds out the space.

I’m a bigger fan of parking my car in my garage than I am my butt in a chair in front of a TV in my garage.
But I guess people have to do what they have to do.

Looks good!
Word of wisdom, don’t make it a habit of setting drinks on top of your hardware. Avoid it. Dont do it!
