cigga24 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I'll be moving in the next few months and I need some advice about mounting my RC62. Right now my plasma is mounted and the speaker is on tv stand under tv but i dont want to mount plasma at new place. 50in plasma = 92 lbs, i have a 2 section ikea stand and i think the 90lbs is the weight limit because it has a slight sag in the middle from a previous plasma i had before. I dont think it can hold the weight of both tv and speaker, also can the speaker withstand the weight of the tv? I havent found any stores selling speaker mounts that can hold the 32lb rc62, most places sell stands but i cant use a stand because my tv stand has doors on it that conceal the other electronic components. Advice and recommendations please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liebherr954 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Hay how are you. I just went through the same situation with my ikea tv stand (just ordered a kinkard) I used a floating shelf that I bought from ikea (32 inch wide by 12depth) I wasn't able to fasten into any studs so I used heavy duty drywall anchors. All you have to do is pre-drill a 3/8 inch hole and insert the plug, the anchor attached to the backside of the dry wall and expands. The anchors are rated for 80 pounds. I braced the bottom of the shelf with some decorative brackets and it was done. It took about 1 hour (most of the time was spent making sure it was the correct height so the shelf was level with the top of the tv so its not visible) unfortunately I will have to re install the shelf since my new stand is taller. I can honestly say the shelf is 100% secure and has know free play. I can email you some pictures of the process when if you like. Sorry about the huge paragraph, I'm using my phone to reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
