Stand for Plasma AND HTM3S / HTM2D

[EastCoaster]

For anyone who has looked for a plasma/LCD stand that has a shelf right below with a large enough footprint and weight capacity for HTM3S or HTM2D, have a look at the VTI AGR44 stand.

I spent several hours online trying to find just such a stand (this is the only one I found that can take up to an HTM2D), and finally found one. I just got it today, and have to say it looks great, and is not expensive at $242.00. If you want to see it, it's here:

EastCoaster, one thing you might want to consider, since you asked about room treatments, is purchasing a front projector. Putting any object such as a TV in front of your speakers will distort the soundstage. Even if you place it flush with the wall, you will still have the inconsistancies between the materials used, though you could make it flush with the wall and use a curtain to pull over it whenever you want to just listen to music and improve the soundstage.

Hi Jeff - yup - I read some of your posts with interest. But unfortunately my current space is so small (city apartment) that I can't really put the TV anywhere else or camo it.... My TV isn't huge, it's a 37 inch LCD, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it won't obscure the soundstage.
