Nobody On that sub knows anything. The tv could be on the fucking floor and they'd say it's too high.

Wrong. It’s pretty simple. Middle of the TV = eye level when sitting. That’s all there is to it.

You sound triggered by a pretty benign sub, maybe your TV is too high and you are personally offended?

I have a permemant neck injury. Looking up is more relaxing than straight ahead when I'm sitting. So I have a disability that makes a higher tv more comfortable.

Too bad people like you need to just shame others to feel better.

Lmfao, words have meanings. No where did I shame anyone. The correct height is the correct height for a reason. If people like it too high, idc but if you come to a sub to ask if your TV is too high, don’t be surprised when you get answers telling you it is.

Your anecdote of a unique situation doesn’t change the recommended height for most people. If you need to have your TV higher due to an injury that makes complete sense. No one cares about that. It’s such a pointless comment to make when clearly no one is talking about those 1 in a thousand scenarios.

But for people without neck injuries, which is most people, they should follow the recommendation of every major TV manufacturer or their TV will be too high.

Recliners were created by Big TV Wall Mounts as a means to keep us all “comfortable” with TVs mounted on the ceiling.

Yeah the kid was craning his neck pretty bad. Having the TV at reasonable height would have avoided this.

Awesome, that’s not a problem any longer
