Panel Mount Where to place a cable box for a wall mounted Flat Panel tv?
I have just installed & mounted a new 42" flat panel tv above my fireplace. Since it is a High Definition tv my cable company requires me to use a cable box in order to receive the HD signal. However, now I can't figure a good place to put the cable box. Where could I put the cable box without it looking out of place or awkward? I thought of putting the cable box in another location within the room but the only outlet for the cable wire is behind where the tv hangs now. (it s a brand new home and the cable was wired to this location specifically for a flat panel.) The fireplace does not have a mantle either.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
Your TV should have an HD cable tuner built into it. You can tell if it does by looking on the back for a slot marked "cable card". You should be able to get a card from your cable company that will allow you to receive HD programming without a box. Going this route will save you money also because whether you know it or not, your cable company is charging you monthly to "rent" their box. In fact, the difference in price paid for my HD package.
