Mounting your LCD TV to the wall will give you a great viewing angle and help gain some valuable floor space where a table or entertainment center would be.
There are several types of LCD TV wall mounts to choose from:
- Fixed LCD TV wall mounts: A fixed wall mount does not have all he features of the other types. Once your TV is mounted, you will not be able to move it at all so you will need to take extra care in making sure the TV is exactly where you want it to go. This option may be just fine for some installations.
- Tilting LCD TV wall mounts: A tilting mount provides some extra flexibility by allowing you to tilt the TV up or down to ensure proper viewing angle. Generally a tilt mount will rotate up about 5 degrees and down about 15 degrees. This is a good choice for many large screen flat panels and tilting TV wall mounts are often times used in a home theater room or family room.
- Arm LCD TV wall mounts (articulating arm mounts): Arm mounts are more common for smaller LCD TVs. These will allow your TV to be flat against the wall or will allow them to swing out a foot or more from the wall in order to view it from a variety of locations and angles. Many TV arm mounts will also allow the TV to swivel or tilt.
- Motorized LCD TV wall mounts: Although more expensive, you may consider a motorized TV wall mount. They allow virtually silent operation allowing you to rotate the TV for an optimum viewing angle with the touch of the remote. These can certainly provide that”wow” factor for your home theater.
