I have no idea what's in or nice anymore. Please advise. Links helpful! |
Mount it on the wall (assuming it's a flat screen). |
But wouldn't I need something to put underneath it? |
no that's why you are mounting it on the wall. you can put a shelf above or below it to hold your cable box and whatever else. |

A wall. |

You can either mount it on the wall and run the cords through the wall to your components, which can be in a console, or you can place the TV on a long console, like this:

The wall. I hate them in entertainment centers. |
Do a lot of people do this now? Are entertainment centers old news? |
Entertainment Centers are very old news. Put it on the wall - it's not hard, they sell really good mounts that you can put up yourself, and they have wall mounted shelves for under the TV that are unobtrusive and occasionally tasteful. |
You don't have to mount it - you can use a console.
I bought a glass-front bookshelf with doors from Crate and Barrel and drilled a big hole in the back (special big-hole attachment) to run all the wires out. I like a console because I need somewhere to put my home theater and DVR. You could do the same with a buffet or a dresser - even a vintage piece. Remember that 65" is the diagonal measure so your console can be shorter than 65" long. |
A wall. I would be very nervous about it being bumped and falling. |
Yes, way old news. Except in pinterest land, where everyone is turning them into kid's kitchens, dog houses, etc. |
