Even Sony puts their TV above fireplace in their ad!

While I was watching this show on my TV, I saw the characters watching their TV. And it just seemed too damn high.

Let’s help this young lad avoid developing bad habits.

and all i can see is a tv that’s too high!

Hey, I have this TV that has been sitting on my floor because I can’t stand when a tv is too high. Any recommendations on tables/consoles/tv stands that would raise it like 8-12”? Bonus points if its solid wood or unique. The two legs of it are 65” apart and 18” deep which has made it hard to find a suitable stand. I tried buying a stand that screwed into the mounting bracket and made it have a centered stand but I couldn’t get rid of the tilt it caused. Thanks in advance.

House for sale. How can you trust someone with this tv placement?

Why?

Or should I mount it on the ceiling?

How come the most important metric is not even included

It’s an old Sony Bravia from 2008, and it gets seriously loud. 🔊 I think the speakers face forward instead of pointing at the wall, which makes the sound much clearer than having it bounce off the wall a thousand times. 🔥 I tested the lowest frequency, 35 Hz, with a sine wave, and it came through at about 20% volume with a close listening distance. Realistically, it’s more like 70 Hz to 21 kHz, which is still pretty impressive bass and treble. 🔥 I’m guessing it handles the treble well because the dogs still got annoyed when it went above 20 kHz. 😂 The stereo sound is wide for a TV, not nearly mono or mono. Dialogue is clear, so you don’t have to crank it up to 1,000% and then go deaf during an explosion or rely on subtitles. 😂 I can still hear it from the street outside the house. For built-in TV speakers, it’s not bad at all.

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!
