Center channel mounting on Mitsubishi 52725

Sean, very thorough comments on the center channel issue. I appreciate that. Unfortunately, the top of the Mits 52725 is only about 2" deep. Then the back of the unit starts to slope at a very steep angle. In other words, you only get that 2" depth to play with. I'm going to mount the center using two 2x4's and a 1/2" thick piece of painted plywood. I will use your advice on the vibration dampening though. Thanks for your insight!!

Sean,

Just as in Nac25's case with his Mits set, microdisplay based RPTVs in general have a particular problem in that the top shelf is very shallow. I had always thought that was done on purpose to keep people from putting anything other than a tiny CC speaker on it; i.e., keep the weight off.

I would be curious to know if CC speaker vibrations would affect any of the microdisplay technologies - DLP (which I own), LCD, or LCOS variants.

Thanks
Bruce

Wow. I Googled using Mitsubishi WD-52725 as the search criteria and came up with a website that had a bunch of info on this model. They listed the dimensions as that of what i had above. Then again, i guess that if the device doesn't utilized a "squared" chassis ( for lack of a better descriptive term ), our standardized methods of conveying physical dimensions are pretty lacking. Thanks for the clarification.

As such, i can see the problems involved in trying to mount most ANY speaker on the TV. Not even a Magneplaner would work well with that little bit of support underneath it : ) Sean
