(Part 2) Best tv & media furniture according to redditors

I got this one & really like it.


Here it is in my living room

Congrats on the setup!

I recommend getting some speaker stands for better sound and an audio stand to get everything away from the window, air conditioner, radiator and to avoid stacking.

Speaker stands:

• Monolith by Monoprice
  
• Audio Advisor where most are also available at Amazon.
  
  Audio Rack/Stand:
  
  
• Pangea Audio Vulcan TT Turntable Stand with Vinyl Record Storage or double storage with Pangea Audio Vulcan Turntable Stand with Mega Vinyl Record Storage
  
• Crosley Soho
  
• DIY Flexy Rack, Ideas on Pinterst • The TNT FleXy Table - TNT-Audio • The Official Flexy Rack Thread • Easy Flexy Rack • flex-rack-project • I made this modular stereo rack ("flexi-rack")
  
• Salamander Archetype 3.0 Three Shelf Audio Rack
  
• 4 Tier, FITUEYES, Monolith, BL Series Audio Rack, Pangea
  
  Then speaker Positioning:
  
  
• How to position your speakers for great sound
  
• Speaker Placement for Stereo Music Listening

Got it last year. Looks like it’s only available through 3rd party sellers on Amazon now but it might be found elsewhere...

I'll fix the cables again later. I just had my lower wisdom teeth pulled and I feel like complete ass.

Here's where I got mine. They actually have a sale now I think they're cheaper when I bought them two weeks ago: https://www.hairpinlegs.com/collections/table-legs/products/3-rod-hairpin-leg

Here are the cheaper alternatives: https://www.amazon.com/Altra-Retro-Accent-Table-Espresso/dp/B00N4SSYOO

You'll have to ditch the top and paint them, though. I believe they're hollow, compared to the solid metal from the first link, but reviewers say they feel pretty substantial! Good luck with your project!

Sorry for being late, this took me lots of hours to make. Didn't get to finish it last night, so continued today.

Note: I only did this for fun, I am not an amazing expert in terms of interior design.

I used Google's SketchUp, which is a free 3D rendering . I haven't used this in a long time and also couldn't find the installation file to run this. So instead, I used the browser version. Which worked very well, but I couldn't find props, so I hand made everything.
Yes, the bloody plants were a disaster! I also went a bit crazy on my own picasso. Deal with it!

• 3D render pictures:
  
• Picture 1
  
• Picture 2
  
• Picture 3
  
  
• Size reference list:
  
• Couch, TV table, TV, Coffee table, Bookshelf
  
• Chair, Small round table, Slim side table, Plant (lol)

  Overall, I am not too sure about the fireplace. It feels a bit too cramped, but I had it further away from the fireplace which made it a bit awkward in terms of the couch.
  I do really like the couch, but maybe instead of the coffee table, get either a smaller one or not one at all. You could consider a small TV stand and wall mount the TV instead.
  
  Anyway, if you have any question. Don't hesitate to ask!

Here you go good sir.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QT5MMKG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hah, found it! https://www.amazon.com/Monarch-Specialties-2462-Console-Reclaimed-Look/dp/B00QT5MMKG

Kinda expensive. But it could be good for a 27" setup with consoles below. Black Corner TV Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0018SOB6C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_5fIEDbDFE8NRK

I measured all the equipment I had and found this tv stand that fit perfectly.

Pretty sure that this is the TV stand. I know because I have the same one!

Is the fan on the side? Ive got this shelf I put my projector on: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012OVJOQI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00

Thinking maybe you can put something like this up high on your wall and then place the projector upside down on it with using rubber furniture feet on the 4 corners? Might be a dumb idea lol but figured I would suggest it just in case

Edit: Didn't see you can't drill into your wall sorry

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0039HHK22/

American Trails 597-521 Creek Solid Cherry Wood, up to 70" Tv Stand, Natural Wooden Frame/Black Beech Leg https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D39W6C9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_lhtzDbRF0CX0Q

You can get a really similar one on amazon but only one color I believe.

Here you go

Sauder Soft Modern Credenza, Pale Oak https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FZV5H9I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_guLMzbWEDCDVF

If you want to modify your TV to have as close to center pedestal as possible, I suggest getting this leg kit that bolts on the VESA mounting. I use one on my Vizio E55U-D2 55". https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075GJJD37 Price has come down about $5 since I bought mine earlier this year.

We didn't want a wall mount, either. A table with a wide enough base was impractical. We found a middle-ground:

I use a Prepac Sonoma stand, it's built for a heavy CRT and is the perfect size for a 20" PVM: [Link](

Here's the one I bought. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01J6N5PW4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Haha. This is absurd. You can literally get those legs off of this table: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N4SSYOO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 or of a similar cheapo product and the woodworking is youtube learning level in a few hours with less than $100 of tools. You can literally build this in an afternoon. And you pick up the skills to make more faster.

i mean...looks cool and all, but man...people and disposable income.

If your monitor has vesa mounts (screw holes) This cheapo stand on amazon for $13 is great. I have two vertical 32in on them.

But it looks like OP's monitor does not, so i "kinda" get it.

Found and ordered this. I think it will work out nicely. I'll follow up with pics..

Thanks for the advice! I wish I would have thought of using the coffee table as a TV stand lol, but I bought a TV stand already that I'm pretty excited about. It's a similar color to the coffee table, maybe lighter but not sure since it hasn't arrived yet:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FZV5H9I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Right now, I'm thinking getting an ottoman and end table with a similar tone to the coffee table. Still not sure what rug to get, I bought a navy one but it didn't look right to me so I returned it.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FFU9P7E/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

According to its manual it uses a 200mm x 200mm VESA pattern which means you can use something like this.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZSAHYUG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_7evADbA65724W
That should be the one, I've had my figures up on them for a few months now with no problems.

Hey u/HomeAutomationNerd,

Here is the stand, I bought it on Amazon like 3 years ago...https://www.amazon.com/WE-Furniture-Stand-Console-Mount/dp/B010EA5ZH8/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me= . The measurements are 58"x24"x16" (LxHxW). I have mine in my 14'x18' bedroom and its pretty big, so it will take up a lot more room in a 10'x11' bedroom, but it will definitely fit and you will have tons of space for all your electronics and entertainment equipment.

Got some photos? Or draw a layout of your room?
My tv is my second monitor atm. I use KODI to watch movies and it starts on my TV and blanks out my other monitor if it is on. What size is your tv? What size is your desk?
I have a 2nd tv in another room with a long HDMI that goes through the AC access in the wall and goes outside and back in another ac access in the other room.
What about a TV stand behind your desk?

I have no idea what type of equipment you want/have, but if you want modern, this is what you'd probably be going for:

https://www.amazon.com/Yaheetech-Console-Entertainment-Cabinets-Screens-x/dp/B0711MWMPM/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1551038308&sr=8-16&keywords=tv+console+black

I was thinking something more like this: not mounting on the wall, but the back of the cabinet. Whalen Furniture XLDEC54-NV 3-in-1 Flat Panel Entertainment Stand with 2 Drawers, 54-Inch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00G0OCXZA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_kI9PAbB1AJDB9

Guys I was considering this one:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQAK1H8/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_B38rub06P98MN


Or

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FFU9P7E/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_-m-rub0J2HFEW

I was hoping for something like this. But bigger:

Some no-name model.

I didn't really want to spend $200+ for an AV rack. This one is decent although on close inspection the finishing has a number of blemishes (e.g. scratches or missing paint) here and there. Can't expect much more for the price, but it looks fine from a comfortable viewing distance.

Does your landlord allow that, most don't. I'd check with them first or at least look at your lease to make sure you are not violating it. Could always get one of those tv stands that has a pedastal for mounting a tv on it like this:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01A6D9D12/ref=asc_df_B01A6D9D124979451

My 32" Sony is about 160 and this has been holding it just fine. I'm about 170lbs so I sat all my weight on it to test it out. The top is a solid piece of wood and not press-board.
