    Additional Avant Stand

    Hi All,

     

    I have an Avant in a bedroom at the foot of a fairly tall bed. The problem I have is that the TV is just a few inches too low for me to be able to view when in bed.

    Given that these TVs are extremely heavy, could anyone suggest a stand of some sort that would give me a few extra inches of height (a little extra storage would be nice too for an STB or two)?

    I was thinking of the stand used under some BV5's but am unsure if its deep enough (given that the BV5 is a flat screen) or if it can withstand the weight.

    Thanks as always

    I am sure it would do - have you had a look at the Struer design cabinets - I am sure they can do something to suit. Just one other thought though - the speakers will be firing underneath the bed. Maybe you need a table and a BV3 instead? In a similar dillemna myself as my LX is aging and I have a spare Avant! I think it is probably too big - just not sure what I will get to replace the LX.

    Thanks for your response Peter. I have considered the Struer design furniture but everything looks to be too tall for my needs.

    I think the BV5 cabinet is the ideal height (although I've only seen it in pictures) since it looks to be about the same as your average STB.

    I really only need to raise the TV around 6 inches.

    Either that or I have to replace the bed or get myself a BV3 as you've suggested!
