If using this to mount a TV under a cabinet, how much headroom would I need to leave to install/remove the TV?

I'd say at least 8 inches from the top of the tv to be safe. To install you have to have enough room to slip it in, and to uninstall enough to lift it out. The bracket attaches to the center of the back of tv, so you'd have to measure it out. Good luck!

I mounted it under the cabinet where the previous tube TV was held. The bracket tilts back and up so access to the vanity area is not restricted when tv is stored. I created a cardboard cutout of the TV, so I could place the bracket so when folded it would not hit back wall.

It depends on the molding. A small under cabinet molding should be okay. However, anything that is more than a couple inches tall and is not mostly horizontal is going to make the mount unstable.

Even though it is a large heavy duty unit, it shouldn't take two people. While it is fairly stiff I suggest you reach under below and up over the set and rather than pulling on the tv cabinet itself, push/pull on the mounting brackets to take the strain off the mounting screws. It's safer and you'll feel better hopefully.

Viewing area is about 41" x 9". Don't know why you couldn't install it under a TV. The heat blows out from the front of the fireplace.

If the TV is very heavy I wouldn't use it for that because a lot of that cabinet is held together by glue and wooden pegs. It doesn't have a very large top to it at all since it is meant to go in a corner. Hope this helps. Plus, since you have to put everything together on this cabinet which includes attaching the hardware, it's not worth the money or the effort.

I mounted mine less than 4" below the ceiling by cutting the down tube so that the holes in the tube were closer to the ceiling as far as the 28+" from ceiling to base, that would depend on the measurements of your tv. But you can raise your tv and mount to less than 4" by cutting the tube.

Take a look at the dimensional sketch showing the minimum height required between the mounting holes & the top of the tv. Depending on the position of the mounting holes in relation to the bracket, there may be a little distance between the top of the TV & the underside of the cabinet. The holes are also slotted to allow for some vertical adjustment.

Depends on where you mount it I imagine. I set mine up 4inches below the Flat screen mounted on my wall. Sounds epic ! I hid the sub behind the sofa in a corner.

I am using it on a 22 inch TV between the kitchen cabinets and counter. Love it.

i would also like to know, how high from the base the tv would be with the mount in the top position? i don't want my tv mounted too low.

I guess it would depend on how large tv you were using. (for the top of cabinet ?) if your thinking about putting inside, I think it would work.

I would put it somewhere in between 15 and 25 degrees. If you have a wall slopping at 45 degrees, you would still have the TV pointing 25 degrees to the floor. I would build a wood frame out of 2x6 lumber to line up with the studs in the wall and the holes in the TV mount. You would bring the bottom of the wood frame out about 10 or 11 inches. Use wood screws incase i'm wrong so you can rework it if necessary.Good luck

I don't think it should be mounted under a cabinet. The unit gets pretty hot and there wouldn't be enough airflow. Maybe with a specially designed mount that lets it hang down a few inches from the cabinet base.

I have it in my shelf. The remote really doesn't work well without a direct beam to the IR sensor. So mounting it to the back of the TV would probably be a really bad idea. It's small enough to fit most anywhere on an entertainment center though, so it shouldn't be a problem finding space.

You can put it anywhere you want. If it is an enclosed cabinet I would make sure that there is enough ventilation. (see last post) If there isn't, heat will build up and the components in the cabinet will not last as long. When I am home I have my TV and Tuner on from when I get home from work to when I go to bed. Heat builds up and a cooling fan was a great solution to the heat build up. I'm no Amazon electronics wiz bang, just my 2 cents. Good luck.

I mounted it to a floor (furniture) stand, however the spacing between the mounts is only 7 & 7/8" so you need to make sure whatever you get will allow such a small size. The TV only came w/2 rear mount screws (the 2 fatter chrome ones with the washers on them) so you will need to get 2 more for a secure wall mount if you go that way. The mounting holes on the back of the tv are very close to the slight bulge in the center and the supplied screws will only fit the mounting holes.
