Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers?

I'm having trouble thinking this through...my listening room has 3  sides with records 7 rows high... Concrete floor, but all  carpeted the speakers are 5' from the wall    Definitely not a lively room! I was thinking about putting a new 60 inch tv between and behind them...apparently the tv with base would be around 14" off the wall( I could bring the speakers out another 10" if 'necessary')
any guess how it might affect the sound and imaging etc???
THANKS!

Sure sure you can. If you're concerned about sound reflecting off the screen; you might consider a bracket extended in both depth and width to accommodate a pair of heavy curtains that can be drawn to the sides past the TV. Could look quite dramatic, in a good way.

^BTW, 60" might be a bit small for what I imagine the viewing distance to be.

I have a 73" DLP between and behind my Wisdom L75 speakers. I put a black bed quilt over the TV when I listen. That does the trick.

I have a large flat panel behind my stats but I have a TV Lift that goes up and down by remote.  For serious listening, I lower the TV and have RPG diffusers behind it.
