Entertainment Center

Large screen and flat panel televisions are here to stay. Finding the right entertainment center to fit both the TV and the room decor can be a bit of a challenge, but there are so many from which to choose, you're guaranteed to find exactly what you need and love. Many are available as a set, complete with credenza and pier cabinets to complete the ensemble. The Crescent Village Ovation Entertainment Center has a rustic look with an oak finish and black accents, which make a beautiful contrast. The credenza has room for audio and visual components and media collections, as well as open shelving for decorative accents. The pier cabinets are adjustable and can fit televisions up to 50-3/4" wide and 34" high. The black carpet behind the TV blocks out light to give you a better picture. Open shelves on the pier cabinets are the perfect place for books, plants or photos.

Wicker TV Stand

Finding the right kind of storage for our bedroom TV has been a challenge, because our bedroom window overlooks a large pond and we didn't want the television to obstruct it. This TV stand from Sunset, seen on www.shopentertainmentcenters.com, is made of wicker with a whitewash finish, which makes it perfect for our beach cottage decor. The TV stand has a swivel top, so we can turn the TV towards us when we're watching it and then slide it back into place when we are finished. Three drawers store DVDs and other types of media, and there's also a shelf for the cable box or DVD player.

An Accommodating Media Mount

This weekend, my aunt invited me over to enjoy her new entertainment room. She's been planning to update her living room for quite a while and finally was able to get her ducks in a row. My favorite part was not the inviting brown leather La-z-boy sectional although, it was very comfortable. It was the new media mount and Sony LN46A950D1F! Having a new LCD is a treat all it's own. While, the photo of the Peerless Mounts SmartMount® Universal Tilt Mount may not be very sexy, I cannot stress enough how accommodating media mounts are. Even better, it’s designed for quick and easy installation. My aunt has the mount positioned above her fireplace mantle. I love the way her new set-up saves her space, it just makes sense. Not only does the media mount make more space, it also has tilt adjustments for better TV viewing. I would highly recommend a TV mount to anyone that is looking to save space.

Sound Effects Entertainment Center

The Sound Effects Entertainment Center is my first choice for a post. Why? Because, I purchased this a few weeks for our bedroom and was truly impressed by it's design. The drawers under the TV stand appear as though they are suspended in the air. The best feature... the drawers have glass fronts so that you can put your entertainment components, like your receiver or cable box into the drawers and the remote still works!!! This entertainment center is available at ShopEntertainmentCenters.com and is currently listed at $799.99...worth every penny.
