People who have a wall mounted flatscreen

[Leung]

In regards to my basement flooding, instead of replacing my entertainment center, I'm think of mounting my LCD to the wall.

Anyone got any tip on what kind of mount to get such as brands? I've seen some of the ones at walmart and they look flimsy. Another thing is how do you guys keep all the cables organized/hidden?

How big is your TV?

I have a 32'' wall mounted with a cheap Wal mart mount, been over a year and no problems. As long as you find the studs you should have nothing to worry about.

Wire mold is a good way to hid the wires if you dont want to cut into your walls. Home depot sells some real cheap.

Thanks guys. Yeah all I have is a 32" screen for my bedroom, could have gotten a bigger one but felt like it was over kill.

I don't really feel like running the cables through the wall so I guess I'll just use that ribbed tubing, I forget what it's called but there's a slit in it to run wires.

homedepot sells some flat style kind to hide the wires, ive only seen it in gray but might be available in black.

I got a mount from amazon, cant remember the brand but it was the cheetah model. swivels tilts and everything.

At my house we bought the walmart one and opened up the wall and made a structure and put bolts to it. Then we fed the wires through the wall with some strings so that we would be able to feed any wires in the future.
