For the folks with 55 inch plus TVs mounted, how much space is left on the top shelf? Enough for a center speaker?

Yes, there is room for a center speaker. I have a 65 inch Vizio TV mounted on this stand. If you want some photos let me know and we can figure out a way to get them to you. I hope that this helps:)

I have big center speaker and there is plenty of room for it. Highly recommended.

I used it with a 65 inch tv without problems. I have two small speakers on the side but can't give info regarding a center speaker

Don't have a 55+ I have a 50 and there is 12 inches from bottom edge of the TV to the top shelf....

Yes, the mount is a standard VESA so you can just mount it higher. I have about 16" clearance and mine is mounted centered

There is a lot of height adjustment available. I have a 65 inch Samsung mounted, and a Yamaha Sound Bar on the top shelf. There is still 2 inches between the sound bar and and the bottom of the TV. I measure 11 inches from the top shelf to the bottom of the TV.

I have 60" TV mounted which is about 33" in height. I still have 12" space between TV's bottom edge and Top shelf. I have my central speaker and Kinect on it.

I assembled the TV stand. As strange as it might sound, the dimensions printed on the box were misleading: the overall width is 62" instead of 67"! But that's exactly what I needed since the TV width is 61". A little advice about assembly: don't tighten too much the bottom tubes, as they are a little off size and will stress the back panel. It has a beautiful glossy black finish (both the wood and metal parts). Very sturdy (90 lbs) and easy to assemble (5 wood and 7 metal parts). All hardware (about fourty 1/4" screws and washers) are black and so are the 4 adjustable feet. The only non-black parts are the glass shelf (clear) sitting on 4 suction cups (clear) and the four wire clips (beige) concealed behind the back panel. Here is a picture: http://cdn.overstock.com/images/products/L_11721851.jpg Overall width: 62" Overall height: 7" (adjustable to 8" from the feet) Overall depth: 7.5" Top panel: 34" x 13" (the TV sits on it) Glass shelf: 49" x 16" The clearance between the glass shelf and top panel is 10". It will accomodate most of the bulky receivers out there, but the PS3 will have to sit horizontally. The center speaker can sit on the glass shelf or on the top front rail (depending on how slim it is). The trapezoidal shape of the frame makes possible to place the front speakers (on stands) behind the top front rail. All in all very nice and matching perfectly the size and finish of my Samsung HL67A750 TV, Onkyo HT-S7100 Receiver & Speakers and PS3 Game & Blu-ray System. Only the Wii Game System stands out with its grey finish, but hey! I think I'll keep it.

The top shelf is not 55" so the TV will extend longer then the shelf but it will work. I have a 60" TV and it holds it. It just depends if you want TV flush with top shelf from aide to side.

with a wall mounted TV above this shelf, there wouldn't be adequate room to install other wall shelf below. it will take the majority of your wall space as is.

The TV I have is a 55 inch. I use a stereo for surround sound, but I have a 5 inch center speaker under the TV.

if you mean on top of the shelf, and I assume not IN the shelf, then yes. plenty of space, probably up to 40 inch tv.

My center speaker is 6" from the TV. I would get a real contractor for your roof, I wouldn't trust a "sub roofer".

I am currently in China so I can not be exact with my measurements but the middle top shelf is around 8" tall. I have a directv receiver there and still room on top of it. Sorry I can't be exact

I've got a Samsung near that size on mine and there's plenty of room for the soundbar on the top shelf. My soundbar is also Samsung and is only about 3-4 inches tall but I'd say there's at least 6-8 inches of space there. Hope that helps. It's a nice set up.

you ,may need remove some of the mounting brackets that are in place to secure this shelf. As long as there is room beneath the tv for this shelf, should be fine.

My 55" fits end to end. I would not want to sit the TV on the stand. It looks good with the TV floating a few inches above the stand. I love the unit. Good quality and excellent for storage.

Erik, I used this for exactly that purpose...I purchased a POLK CS1 center channel speaker but had no where to place it. I purchase this and put the Plasma TV on top and the center channel speaker between the two shelves (With about a 1/2 inch clearance)....Worked perfectly...

Yes, 5.1 will include a center speaker in front, above, or below your tv. Preferrable you put it right above the middle of the tv.I can personally recommend the Onkyo receiver, its amazing.

Possibly, what is average size? I have a 55" plasma and the base is slightly larger than the speaker, I don't think it would be stable enough.I also have a 23" HDMI monitor that would easily fit. Speaker vibrations at high volume with lots of bass might be a problem. Amazon needs tocheck their item measurements, they are often wrong. They show this item: 10 x 10 x 7.5 inches. Just by looking at the picture you can tell it can't be right. Dual 5 -1/4-Inch speakers plus two more in between, only in a Tardis! Anyway mine measure 10x20.5x7.5 inches.

I believe a 30" tv will be ok on this shelf. As long as you get it in the studs you should be ok.
