Wall mounting above your panel is really the best.
Here is another option, when I had my 60" Pioneer plasma and my Yamaha YSP-4000 I couldnt do a wall mount (sliding glass door behind my Pioneer plasma that was on a stand) so here is how I mounted the YSP-4000 above my panel.
Went to HomeDepot and bought 3 peices of that 1" wide steel (I forget what its called, they are flat peices of steel about 1" wide, have holes pre-drilled in them and come in all different lenghts),, anyhow I mounted two of the metal strips to the back of the plasma "verticly",,,,, bolting them into the plasma using the hole's that are for a wall mount plate, I mounted them so the tops of the verticly mounted steel peices were about 6" higher than the top of my bezel, I then bolted the 3rd steel peice horizontly across to the tops of the 2 other steel peices,,,,, wha-la,,, a home made mount for my YSP-4000 at a cost of about 20 bucks.
It worked great and actually looked very cool.
I wish I had taken some pictures of it.
