TV stand help - Blu-ray Forum

LifeOfAPirate13 · 02-03-2009, 03:07 PM

I am going crazy trying to find a good TV stand for my 50" samsung. I am trying to go for an all black stand and something that would look good with the Klipsch RF-82's on the side. Since I can't mount my tv to the wall of my new residence I pretty much want to get a stand that have a tv mount attached to it. I am looking at this http://www.racksandstands.com/Atlant...39-AL0349.html and though it says it holds up to most 42" its weight capacity is 100lbs my samsung without the tv stand is 86.4 lbs, so I would figure it would be mountable by weight. The length of this stand is 47.63" and the TV's length is 48.8". That is one of my options the other stand that has my interest is this http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....ci_sku=8760307 which is designed to hold the tv and is wider than the tv as a whole. Price isn't a huge issue in this matter I just want something that will look awesome with the Klipsch's attached. I need opinions because I am indecisive about this haha. Any help or other suggestions would be great. I am trying to fit my center RC-62 below the TV on what would be the top shelf. My other systems I have to hook up are PS3, XBOX360, Cable Box, Onkyo 605, and a power conditioner most likely a monster 2500 series. As well as mass wire management. Thanks for the help guys!

check my gallery.. I have a stand you also might like.. I bought it at BJ's.. but the Best buy one was my 2nd choice..

LifeOfAPirate13 · 02-03-2009, 03:25 PM

My tv is 10 more inches than yours though so my tv will dominate that stand and I don't think it'll look too keen with the rf-82s next to a tv that eats the stand I need a perfect balance. I do like your stand though.

joegs300 · 02-03-2009, 04:26 PM

Check out my stand. It's good for a 63'' TV but fits my 50'' Panny just nice. It has two stands below it. It cost me about $219 from Best Buy. PM me if you have any questions. It's black on black with black glass.

Yup! Just a suggestion!

aramis109 · 02-03-2009, 05:20 PM

What about Z-line? Check mine out in my gallery. I got it for $198 from Wal-Mart. Alternatively if you want tinted glass they have them online for about $300.

Good fit and finish, good integrated mount, wire management, and room for your components. Has about everything you've listed as a requirement.

Phatferd · 02-03-2009, 05:24 PM

This is the one I got from Target and I love it:
http://www.target.com/Stealth-TV-Sta...stealth&page=1

It's very strong and sturdy and will hold your TV's weight. It was very simple to put together as well. Everything goes into the center shaft.

fatediesel · 02-03-2009, 05:48 PM

I would check out Sears. I was surprised by how many stands they had in store and some pretty nice ones also.

Bell'O makes a good stand. If you look at my pics, you'll see my stand and it is for a TV up to 50", likes yours. I like the stand, and it works well with all of my black equipment except for that darn silver HR20 that Directv gave me.

Otherwise, they make a really good product in my opinion....good luck!
