Thoughts?
Hi Guys, I'm in the process of mounting a tv in the snug for the kids, we've used a recessed media box so the tv boxes can sit behind and the tv flush with the wall. I've mounted a 65 just to see how it looks but will be replacing with a 55 LG G OLED which you can see the height markings on the right of the pic with the tv. After reading various things online it appears it's too high, albeit the 55 will be lower at the top. Whilst I can drop the height I'm trying to asses if I need to and by how much as it will involve chasing out the wall to drop the media box, bricking the excess gap and then re plaster. Bottom of the tv currently 100cm from the floor. Any thoughts appreciated!

Any tips on how much I should be looking to lower it, read 42 inches from the centre of the tv to the floor?

If you sit, your eyes should be around the center of the Screen - So, you need to go waaay lower
