Fantastic shelving unit for sloped-back televisions!Strengths: Sturdy metal design, intelligent black styling that matches most big-screen TVs, very easy to install and tweak to be perfectly level. Weakness: Holes for mountain legs not always in the ideal position, but grid-like holes throughout plate are easy to utilize for leg mounting locations with no problems. Got two of the shelving units for my new 57" widescreen TV, set them both up side-by-side and they're extremely sturdy. They fit in very well with the TV and don't really look awkward at all. I would highly recommend this shelf to anybody who needs the shelf space for their TV. I reviewed several other options and nothing compared to the quality of these shelves. Right now I've got the central channel speaker and two water-filled collectible decanters and they're as sturdy as can be. The images I've included aren't great quality, I'm no photographer but you can get a sense of how sturdy the shelves are.

Problem Solved !!Strengths: The only option I could find to do what I needed done. And it does it perfectly. Weakness: None. Unless your center channel weighs much more than 30lbs. I needed a place to put my 20lb center channel speaker in my recently upgraded Home Theater system that now includes a 61" JVC HD-TV (HD61-FN97). The top of the TV is only 2-3" wide, and the 2 shelves below the TV were already filled with other components. 100% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

OmniMount Center Channel Speaker ShelfStrengths: Well constructed. Weakness: Limited adjustability I purchased this to use with a Panasonic plasma. It is well-made and well-constructed. There was no mention before I purchased the unit that it requires the TV cabinet to be at least 8.5 inches deep. The back legs only extend straight down and cannot be angled forward to fit a thinner cabinet so this was unusable for me. Keep your TV dimensions in mind before buying. 88% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

OmniMount Center Channel Speaker ShelfStrengths: Solid construction, Nice Finish Weakness: Harder to assemble than it has to be; Two pegs in the front necessary to secure the shelf to a DLP Television are silver finish and longer than they need to be. UPDATE: Legs Break! I did quite a bit of online research when looking for a speaker shelf to attach to my 55" Samsung DLP and the OmniMount shelf appeared to be the way to go. Now that I have it, it's not a bad shelf, but I think I'd just build one myself if I had to do it again. 50% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Good ProductStrengths: Holds the weight well Weakness: May not be big enough for certain speakers I bought this shelf so I could put my Infinity C250 center channel speaker on top of my Sony 60" projection LCD. The shelf holds the weight of the speaker very well. I did want to get the C360 which weighs about 30 pounds but I couldn't find a shelf big enough for it. It would have been nice if they make a model that is wider and can hold more weight. I don't know, may be they do and I just missed it. This is the right solution if you need to put something on top of a TV that does not have a flat top or enough surface area. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Nice center channel shelfStrengths: lightweight, 2 different colors, simple to install Weakness: The front 2 pegs that hang down in front of the TV are a little aesthetically obtrusive. In general this is a good, if not maybe a tad expensive little shelf for center channel speakers and any other component that one might want to put on top of a TV. This is particularly true for alot of the new TV's that are very thin or have less-than-horizontal surfaces on the top edge of the TV. The only real bummer is that the two pegs in the front of the shelf have to hang down over the front of your TV which, to me, was an aesthetic consideration. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

OmniMount Center Channel Speaker ShelfStrengths: Solid design. Excellent quality Weakness: None I bought this shelf to mount my cable box over my 50" Samsung DLP HDTV. It is the only product I could find that solved my space problem, short of trying to build something myself. Easy to install, works great for my purpose. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

OmniMount Center Channel Speaker Shelf
Strengths: Well built and well finished
Weakness: The quality of the carton package is poor. Instructions are poorly written.
An excellent product to begin your Home Theater and to position with precision your center channel on top of your High Def CRT TV. The quality of the steel is high and the finishing of the black shelf of good quality. Micrometric inclination of the shelf to focus the tweeter of the center channel toward the listening position is possible.
The instructions are not very useful, but overall the set-up is easy and does not require too much time. A good bargain.
