How to avoid problems with the installation of LCD TV

After I finally, the new LCD TV on the wall of my room, I was back to admire my new toy to assemble. Beautiful as it seemed there, hanging in the air, I knew I had to do something for the wires dangling. Blacks and red tubes sprouting from the back of the TV were hanging like unwelcome snakes from the branch of a tree that extends from the middle of my cream-colored walls and carpeting.

After one look at my situation for half an hour II realized that one of two ways. Nor have I been able to learn to live with the wires as they were (perhaps around the room painted in a darker color so that) in combination with a cable, rubber, or I could buy some of them stick.

I had a small fortune on TV, but I really like the task to paint my entire living room a different color, but a pair of camouflage unsightly cables. Take what I thought was the most reasonable of the twoOptions jumped on the computer to try to find some equipment storage that I could put in less than television. It would be a great thing because the TV was pretty high up on my wall and I need a DVD player and Freeview Box House, which was also the Xbox and Playstation think.

After a week or so of scouring the web (I live in a rural area, the choice of the furniture is minimal), I finally found something that is almost ideal. Measuresperfectly, and the color of the tree would be exactly in line with the rest of my living room furniture.

After the purchase and payment for the piece I am eagerly awaiting his extradition. In a day of work at the estimated date of arrival I sat on the doorstep and waited. Drag in a few hours a large truck outside and see a hairy man who showed a clipboard. When the formalities were over, I helped to bring the field to my door, thanked him and went away.

After a fewHours after the installation, I pushed the new installation of carpet and on TV. It fits perfectly and brilliantly. The lacquered wood create a comfortable reflection from television, is polished to a glossy surface.

I sighed and stood back to admire my work, a cup of tea and sat down with the remote. It 'was then that I discovered a problem.

Shelving installation was a fundamental inches too high. To change channels with remote control, I hadstand up to the buttons on the right side of the TV-point, no real point to take away with one remote. A semi-remote now.

I bought the LCD to improve the quality of my life. I think we settle for a strong muscular thigh.
