It's not clear to me which part of the TV you want tilted forward--the top or bottom edge? If it's the top, then don't extend that metal extension on the bottom bracket...you will have about a 10-15% angle but may need to get an HDMI plug for the back of the TV that you can rotate/angle so it doesn't push the bottom part of the tv out.

brackets on the bottom would tilt it up, that should work fine. Brackets up top will require new hardware to tilt down. That I would not trust

Just put a small object behind the top of the TV to hget the tilt upou Sure, just put a small block behind the to of the TV to get the tilt you want. Should be easy. Just make sure the wall units are secure as you will be changing the forces on them from straight down to down and outward from the wall.

No, not with the bracket that comes with it. But it looks like you could buy a tilting bracket and replace the pieces that attach to the TV and it would give you tilt capability

I just got mine last night... viewing angles aren't as great as LCD's, that's for sure... left and right as well as up and down. I really didn't appreciate just how big this thing was going to be til it came in. I have it up too high and you can notice the difference pretty easily from having your eyes on level with the center of the screen and being above/below that point. I have a chair that is about 45 degrees and you can also notice the picture dim compared to sitting straight in front, but its not too bad. I wouldn't want to sit at much more of an angle than that though. I'd say its got about 90 degrees of solid viewing and then it starts noticeably degrading. You're definitely going to want to sit as close to head-on to this thing as you can get with your eye-level near the center though. I think the up/down viewing angle is worse. Very happy though overall... Kind of shocked what I got for my money. I was looking to get the biggest best TV I could for under $1k and frankly, I ended up with more than I bargained for.

Most of the receiver holes on the back of televisions are in a standard pattern. See what the measurements are for this bracket and compare that to your set. I like the one I have because it moves in several angles. I have mine mounted high up in a corner so it needs to tilt downward. Good luck.

Hey bill, there's plenty of bolt options on the vertical mounts to the tv and as far as the tilt it's doable just pretty tight behind there it's pretty low profile mount..

Do the vertical TV attaching brackets adjust horizontally to fit various TVs? My understanding of your question is that you are misinterpreting how the device works. Your tv already has screw points where these vertical pieces need to be attached. Once you secure the vertical pieces on the TV, you would take the TV to the wall and have the top hooks on the vertical pieces hook onto the top of the horizontal pieces that you would already have secured to the wall.Can the tilt be adjusted with the TV in place? My answer: Only by force. The angle is set by tightening a screw.

I found that the mount will not sit next to the ceiling to hide the mounting bracket and you may have to side the t.v. to one side more than the other, why I don't know but may tilt to one side more I use a small line bubble level to get the t.v. to look even. And if you are wanting the t.v. to be straight up and down with the ceiling I think maybe you mean bar yes, but I found that if you are sitting or laying down to view than you may want to set the tilt to more of a 20 degree angle for better viewing. I hope this helps.Good luck

Yes. We used a low-profile mount, and it looks pretty sexy on our wall. BUT, we put it pretty high, and that was apparently a bad idea. If you want to watch 3D, you need to be eye level with the TV. Since ours is above eye level, we simply can't watch anything in 3D unless we stand up or maybe if we sit on a bar stool. We'll be buying a tilt wall mount soon and setting that one up instead so we can enjoy the 3D, which looks awesome when we can see it.

I was looking at the bracket again this morning and maybe there is a way. There are two brackets that screw to the back of the tv, usually they go vertically, if you attach them horizontally it should work. This approach would work with just about any mounting system since they all seem to work on the same principle. The only thing that changes among them is if the tv is fixed or is allowed to swing or move side to side. If you don't need the tv to move, save yourself some money and just buy a fixed mount. Hope this helps.

I have not mounted mines but I did do the research for it and got a rosewill rhtb-11001 tilt TV bracket mount which was pretty cheap on sale. you just have to make sure the mount you buy supports an adjustable "vesa pattern" up to the required 400x400 to for this tv and of course the size & weight of the TV

That is how we installed our's. Put a nice stained board up for stability & put the mount on it. When we fold the TV up to the ceiling we attatch a bungie cord across it incase we hit a hard bump just to be sure the clame doen not bounce loose. Seems to work great.

Mine is slightly tilted as well, but not to the point of annoyance. I had the TV professionally installed, so I did not try and adjust, so I don't have any specific help. It almost appears to be sagging to some extent. It is an inexpensive mount compared to others I have seen and I suspect that the price reflects the lack of robust design and material used for this mount. That said, it has not failed and I am still using it.

You cannot but the you COULD possibly use some spacers in the top bolts to give you a slight angle. Just put the spacers between the TV and the bracket. The unit is very stable and works as advertised on a table. We used it to replace a missing stand for a TV that had been mounted on the wall before.

There are a couple of screws at the bottom that you will use to adjust the tilt. The tighter the screws, the less the tilt. if your TV is 50 inches +, you will need a long screwdriver to reach them.

There is a special bracket made, but are very hard to find any more of them. Search on Ebay. I don'y know if a TV mount would work.

As long as the mount was installed close to level you can tilt the tv slightly. I think +\- 3 degrees? I can't remember off hand

Tilts about 15. Best to mount your TV eye level (when seated) when using this type of mount.
