UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A CENTER SURROUND SOUND SPEAKER, OR A SOUNDBAR, UNDER THE TV ON THE MANTLE, IN WHICH CASE THE TV

SHOULD ONLY BE THREE AND A HALF INCHES ABOVE THE SPEAKER.

-     IF YOUR TV IS GOING IN A LIVING ROOM ON A REGULAR WALL AND NOT ABOVE A FIREPLACE, THE TV SHOULD BE MOUNTED

RELATIVELY LOW WITH THE BOTTOM OF THE TV AROUND EYE LEVEL WHEN SITTING, THINGS THAT CAN EFFECT THIS ARE:

IF YOU HAVE A LARGE PIECE OF FURNITURE THAT WILL BE UNDER THE TV TO HOUSE THE COMPONENTS

IF YOU HAVE SMALL CHILDREN THAT YOU WANT TO KEEP FROM TOUCHING THE TV

IF YOUR SEATING ARRANGEMENT IS FAR AWAY FROM THE TV
