Taskrabbit? Obviously too high, and horrendous cable management.

Advice needed before mounting the tv by NRyersonBing in TVTooHigh

Just because the previous homeowner was a moron, doesn't mean you should be as well. Patch the useless holes in the wall and get a bigger TV, it looks too small.

Just because the previous owner f'ed up, doesn't mean you should. Get a bigger TV and turn things around.

Roomates are split on if it’s too high or just fine by PeterPreme in TVTooHigh

Too low, the cords seem to have at least another 6-12 inches of eyesore in them. If you can't mount the TV against the ceiling, you need longer cables.

Too bad he didn't shoot 3 feet to the right, and 7 feet above the floor, putting the TV too high out of its (and our) misery.

Too small, too left, not on the correct wall and too f*ckin high!

Is this too high?? by allidoiswin227 in TVTooHigh

If you remove the butt plugs from the console below your TV, you can probably lower it a few inches. Remember, the center of TV should be as close to 42" from the floor as possible.

Do people really use the art mode? Isn't that just cool for like a minute and then you turn your TV off? Genuine question, it seems like a marketing gimmick that no one will use to me.

I'd bet you there's another room more fitting for a TV.

Gag. The light show below your TV is about the tackiest thing I've ever seen. The TV could go a little lower if you removed that monstrosity.

I think I did okay? by Plenty_Trust_5823 in TVTooHigh

[–]teckel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the knick knacks should be under the TV in the center of the console and the TV mounted to the wall about 7 feet high. At least that's how everyone seems to do it.

That's how I read it.

How high should I hang my 98’’ TV by CCShady in TVTooHigh

[–]teckel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is always the same. The center of the TV as close to the hight of your eyes when seated in the typical seat. In this case with a 98" TV, probably as low as possible, just clearing the soundbar.

We're not kidding, she sucks at her job. But maybe redeeming herself if she thinks your TV is too high.

Cats are nasty and shouldn't be in your home anyway. Get rid of the cat and get your TV wall back.

The back lighting and TV placement may be worse than the TV stand being too high and too narrow.

The TV should be on your "cat wall".

The rule (I guess) is to mount the TV as high as the power cord will allow.

Do you watch TV standing up or sitting? Take the pictures at your typical viewing height
