Great solution for mounting TV over fireplace
Comments (3)Could you elaborate a little on how the power supply and various cables connecting the TV to cable box, Roku, DVD player, etc. were handled?...See MoreBuying a Home - Basement Fireplace & TV/Theater Dilemma
Comments (10)Hi Mnsportsgeek, From the sounds of it you would like a functional living and viewing space without involving to much construction. Here is my suggestion: 1. Wall mount your 50" TV with a Chief TS525TU Thinstall Articulating wall mount just to the left of the fire place. This has a approx. extension of 24" with wide range of movement to allow you to center the TV on your couches viewing are when in use and put in back out of the way when not. 2. Power is located in the wall below to allow for an easy fish of power cords to conceal wires in the wall. Or leave them run externally if so desired. 3. Entertainment center and equipment can be placed below TV leaving plenty of room to walk through. 4. For internet: If signal throughout house is not strong enough look into the "eero" in Home Wifi System (link https://eero.com/shop). Extremely easy to setup and very affordable for the DIYer. Got to have that Netflix! 5. Set up couches and coffee table in the 90 degree layout with the focal point being the fire place. The TV swivel out and angled to the same center point of the couch layout. I believe this will give you a great space saving setup with a great viewing area of the TV and Fire place. Couches can be placed in view of the fire place and TV. All without to much construction till your ready for the "big upgrade". Hope this helps!...See MoreOff centered fireplace/tv dilemma
Comments (8)If you are looking at it strictly based on lookks My first instinct is to center the TV over the fireplaceve. If you want to go further you could cut the wooden panel to be over the fire place only not side to side full wall. This will create focal point. One way or the other cut the panel or not you can decorate the left side anyway you like as almost a separate area....See Morefamily room tv dilemma
Comments (5)You could potentially move the smaller grey sofa to where the TV currently is and then place the TV above console to the right of the fireplace. Either way, we think you'll want to place the TV above console to the left or right of the fireplace on an articulating arm so you can pull it off the wall. Notice the TV in our design we have added below....See Morecassandra_woodcock
