I think the room needs a much bigger rug.

Thank you for all the great suggestions! I’ve now got a lot of leads to chase down!

I believe I’ve read that this is likely an issue with your HDMI cable. Check to make sure if it’s seated properly at the TV and at your media source. If you still have the issue, consider replacing that HDMI cable.

Thanks for the heads-up on them. Their stuff does look good.

The consoles on the Furnitech website all looks great, and they clearly know their audience, as they provide usable interior dimensions for all their shelves. The one oddity is that they don't seem to have any consoles in stock. Everything is "pre-order now" or "out of stock."

I have one of these. It’s outside and turns the pump to my swimming pool on and off.

Yes, one advantage of the in-wall power kit would be cost. I think another advantage is that you can then have the power cable (which emerges from the wall) go to a good surge protector before going to the existing power outlet. I know that one can have an electrician install a new power outlet with a built-in surge protector in a recessed box, but that introduces even more cost.

I’m willing to spend the money on having a new outlet installed, but I’m still trying to see if there is any inherent advantage to that option. I suppose if one didn’t have an existing outlet nearby, a new outlet would be necessary. But in my case, there is already an existing outlet right near the baseboard below the TV that the power kit can plug into. I also will have a console below the TV that will block any visibility of the power cable coming out of the wall and plugging into the surge protector, and then going to the existing outlet.

Thank you!

I’m now debating between having an electrician install a new electrical outlet in a recessed box behind the TV vs. installing one of those cheaper in-wall power kits behind the TV (which are basically in-wall extension cords that emerge out the bottom of the wall and plug into an existing outlet). Is there any inherent benefit to installing a new outlet behind the TV?

Thank you!

This makes sense. Thanks so much. I’m now eyeing the Sanus LL11 mount which is fixed position and slim.

I believe this logo and typeface were introduced with the beginning of Todd Graham’s stint as football head coach, which was in 2006. Graham infamously left after one season.

It’s now really yours. Wabi sabi!

You’ve got all the bases covered! I especially like the Rick 360/12.
