    Mounting LCD TV

    I am just now getting to wall mounting an LCD television in the bedroom. Does anyone have a recommended distance above the bed height to place the TV. The wall to foot of the bed measurement is 5.5 ft.

    have the bottom of the tv about 18 inches above the bed, you dont want it too high where you'd have look up too far and get a crick in your neck, but not too low, so your feet wont block the picture.

      If you have the cardboard from the box, measure out the size of the TV on the box (along with or only) the viewing size of the TV. Take the piece of cardboard and have your wife or someone else hold it at different heights until you find out how high you like it.

      Makes it nice and easy and gives you a good sense of exactly what's perfect for you.

        I have laid out the size of the TV on the wall with some tape. Wish I had cardboard handy in that size, but you go with what you got. Got in bed to test it out before mounting......whooa, that didn't come out right!
