How to Choose the Right Size TV Stand, Console

TV's come in a variety of new sizes; they seem to get bigger and bigger! Consequently, people are required to shop for television stands capable of comfortably and safely showcasing a TV. Televisions, however, have also gotten thinner. Premiere Home Entertainment carries TV stands that are large enough to accommodate not only the flat-panel TV, but also the Receiver, BluRay Player, Video Game Consoles, or Speakers. If you find the task of shopping for television stands daunting visit Premiere Home Entertainment for a wide selection of Audio/Video stands to fit your needs.

Our stunning, functional furniture families include TV cabinets and lowboys, stereo stands and home theater furniture created specifically for use with audio and video equipment. We have options for ventilation, media storage and corner friendly units.

A/V cabinets

An audio/video (A/V) cabinet is built specifically to store A/V components, like BluRay players, video game consoles and receivers. Some A/V cabinets feature ventilation to keep electronic components from overheating, but more importantly most cabinets do not offer this ventilation. It is very important to look for A/V furniture that offers proper ventilation. If your cabinet is not properly ventilated it is creating an oven-like environment causing your electronics to over-heat, internally damaging and shortening the life cycle of your equipment. All of the A/V Cabinet manufacturers Premiere Home Entertainment uses do have ventilation features.

Lowboy

A short cabinet with two sets of drawers or shelving. A/V lowboys are generally designed to keep a TV at seated eye level, which is the ideal height and viewing angle to prevent neck strain. The relatively compact size of a lowboy makes it a popular choice for smaller home theater systems.

Wire management

Wire management, sometimes called cable management, refers to the different ways A/V furniture can hide the cables running between stored components. Stands may have hollow tubes or indented channels for cables. Holes in panels and shallow lips on shelves can also help conceal the wires in and around a system.

Ventilation

Electronic components such as receivers, power amps, and preamps generate a significant amount of heat. If this heat builds up, it can negatively impact the performance of your A/V components. Some devices simply shut down if they overheat. Cabinet ventilation keeps air circulating through the enclosed space, pulling heat off the components to keep them cool.
