BV 7-55 Stand choice

14 replies

I find looking slightly downwards far more relaxing than looking upwards. I believe it is also a medical fact (the latter hinders blood flow). I have actually had my smaller MXs placed on the floor in the past; it was nice to watch and also looks great as long as the surroundings are mostly empty.

Now that much of the content we watch is HD and you can thus sit closer to the screen, the top edge of a 55" TV can actually end up really high if the TV is placed on as high a stand than the former smaller TVs were.

Yes I had my MXs on the floor as well, I think the height thing started with the 32" Avant which I got

used to but knew in my heart that it was a bit to high for comfortable viewing, anyway Folks thanks very much for your input I am going to have to find a Low Stand first before I buy a BL 7.6 just to be absolutely SURE!

There were stands (with wheels) for the MX-series as well.

Maybe not as high as the old Avant, but not every MX was on the floor.

The beauty of the low stand is that it hides the cables 🤒
