Helping mom pick her next TV. She is obsessed with how closely it can be mounted to the wall. Claims the one she saw in the store had a power cord that poked out perpendicular from the back of the TV so it could not be mounted flat to the wall. Can...

The power cord has a 90 angle and sticks out about a 1/2 inch from the TV.This TV will go flush flat against the wall. The power cord will not be a problem as there is no wall mount that is less then .5 inch .

Ours is on our son's highboy dresser. Not a chance we were bolting the TV to the top of that dresser. It's fine. By the way, a great TV. Beautiful picture, fantastic value.

Wow, that's odd. I didn't have that problem so I never tried anything different but in your case I guess it's worth a shot. See how it turns out. Wouldn't do it alone though, I think I'd have a friend help, don't want that TV to end up in pieces on the floor if it doesn't work out right.........Good luck!

Yes. Just make sure you make the hole opening (where the cables come out of the wall) right behind the input/output jacks of the TV because the TV gets mounted too close to the wall.

I'm sorry, we have not mounted the tv. I think when looking into buying the tv, amazon had some related items below that could also be considered, maybe a mounting kit is referenced there in that column

NO, probably because ALL large plasma TV's are heavier than same size LCD-TV'sJust find a helpful person in the hardware division at Home Deport, Lowes, etc. to help you design a proper shelf to use on a properly constructed wall!

When it's actually plugged in, it only sticks out from the wall about a half inch. With the prongs you're probably looking at an inch and a half, but you can push just about anything flush up against the plug since it's so close to the wall and the cord hangs down from the plug and not out like a traditional cord would.

They sell a low profile hanging kit. Which is basically two plastic discs with a wire between them that you screw to the tv. The kit also has two discs that you attach to the wall. Then you just hang the tv like a mirror. Super easy to hang. And this will mount the tv real close to the wall. The face of my tv ionly sticks out from the wall about 2". I even framed it and it looks like a picture hanging on the wall. Get the low profile mount kit. You won't be disappointed.

I'd recommend mounting it to studs, or to anchors if you have a concrete or brick wall. They don't recommend placing a TV on the unit though, even though the TV is shown in the picture. You have to have a separate bracket for the TV.

It needs to be a little bit away from the wall. For me, I'm using an extension cord that the cord comes out the side and has flat profile. Then I can push it all the way to the wall.

Yes, I just checked my Magnavox TV. It has four holes aligned in a 3-inch square pattern in the top center on the back - would easily mount to an articulating wall mount with no problem.

Yeah, it's basically just an extension chord mounted behind the wall. It works great for TV's because the 2" circular outlet is hidden behind the tv and you can run other chords along with it, whereas this might be an eyesore next to a tiny speaker. I don't think you can just run the chord for your Sonos behind the wall, so this might be the best solution. It's really just the novice DIY way of putting an electrical outlet up in a place where you don't have one.

as long as your hand fits between your wall and tv you should be able to use it. you may have problems getting it on straight though and not sure where you would put the cords needed to work it however

The mount screws directly into pre-existing holes in the back of the tv. There is some flexibility regarding where those holes are . Hope this helps.

Not sure about your specific TV. Our experience was that we could not tighten the bracket enough for the weight of our TV and it tilted forward. Since it did mount to the wall securely we ended up putting a shim to keep the TV from tilting. Your experience may be different. Good luck.

I have made my TV perpendicular to the wall when it's up. However you can adjusted the angle when you pull the TV down it has three different setting, as far as I can tell

I don't know exactly what your tv looks like, but there's holes in the back and it doesn't fit flush to the back of the tv so even in areas where it wasn't completely open to the ports, I could still get the cords in there.
