Got my Black Friday TV hung

Walmart had a Thanksgiving Day sale online - picked up a 47" Proscan LED-LCD 1080p for $699. 1.5" wide + .3" wallmount = wall hugger.

 

The suck is getting the wires back there. My bedroom already had the outlets prewired for a wall mount. I bought a flush mount wire feed through and a recessed power outlet. The recessed power outlet still wasn't enough, so I hard wired a single plug outlet, pushed back the mounting tabs and shoved it into the prewire box to give enough room for the plug. I also wall fished two HDMI cables down the wall, and mounted a dual HDMI jack in the living room (our master backs up to the living room), this way I can use an HDMI splitter and run my DVR and PS3 from there in the bedroom.

Overall, has a great picture. Sound isn't that great, but it's just a bedroom TV.

Yeah, a 60"+ would work fine on that wall, but I'm not about to shell that kind of cash out on a bedroom TV. We are going to rearrange some furniture in there now that I moved our LCD Rear projection from here into the loft, so the wall won't look quite as big/bare.

 

I played a Blu-ray on it a few minutes ago...this TV looks amazing. I don't think I can see a difference between this and the name-brand LED-LCD's at 2-3x the cost.

I just cannot hang my tv's on the wall. Absolutely, cannot bring myself to even consider it. Maybe, it's the being born and raised in earthquake country or something...

 

i used to be the same way untill i saw how some of these are hung. there good.

 

i like the low profile mount you have. such a clean look vs a tilting or swiveling one

I see how they're hung up, just makes me uncomforable, I guess. I'm still old fashion in that I like an e-center. :D
