Happy Holidays,
I am interested in a 52" Samsung model 860 LCD television (LN52A860).
How does a person go about picking a wall mount?
I'm going to be mounting it above a gas fireplace (direct vent with a fan - with a large mantel separating the tv from the fireplace so no heat issues).
Since it will be above the fireplace, I think I would like to get an articulating mount so I can tilt as well as turn.
I am constructing this myself so am thinking of recessing the mount so I can have the tv flush against the wall.
How do I go about choosing a wall mount manufacturer? There are a bunch of companies which make them - and for huge price differences.
I've seen some companies charge $600 and up for an articulating mount. Is it necessary to spend so much?
I've heard a little bit about Monoprice. Their prices seem really inexpensive. Are their products reliable?
Anyone have a "choosing a wall mount for dummies" guide or something?
Thank you very much...
