OmniMount Center Channel

Highly recommended for users with thin TV sets and large center speakers. This speaker shelf ensures that the center speaker can be safely placed on top of the TV set.

Does the job

Shelf does the job. I installed it upside down as recommended and it looks much better than with the little pegs.

I was a bit worried about the stability of the thing but once I got it on the TV it seems very stable and haven't had any problems with it.

The shelf comes with rubber pads for the rear feet. It appears the intended use is to peel the tape off the rubber and stick them to both the feet and the back of the TV. I don't know about anyone else but I'm not planning on "taping" anything to my TV. Luckily, it sits there fine without being taped down.

TV it's installed on is a 50" SONY DLP. The model number escapes me right now, I think it's a KDF something.

The two problems I saw with it and why it lost 2 stars:
1) The shelf is enourmous. My center speaker is fairly small. Little JBL Sattelite. Shelf is of the size that it looks like I should have a potted plant or two up there with the center speaker. While that might be to accomodate a larger speaker I would be hesitant to put any speaker too large (read heavy) on the shelf.
2) As stated I don't like the idea of having to tape the rubber feet to my TV. Since I don't want to tape it down I have to leave the peel offs on and that greatly reduces the friction between the feet and the rear of the TV. Having rubber pads that were sticky on only one side would allow them to adhere to the shelf feet and alow the rubber to grip on the tv.

All in all, only thing I've found like this on the market so if you don't have a shelf above your TV and don't want to mount the center on the wall...Buy one.

perfect solution

I was looking for a solution for my center chanel speaker that did not involve a hole in the wall. I found the Omnimount and not much else. I was a little worried when a reviewer said it was not designed for the newer shallower TVs. Well, it turns out it is. Maybe it was redesigned, but the instructions show you how to attach it to three different type of TVs - deep, shallow and drop back (not sure if these were the exact names).
The shelf is quite wide, so it looks like it could handle much bigger speakers than mine, or maybe a cable box. Still, it blends with the black TV case and looks real nice.

Awesome Center speaker bracket

I purchased one of these. When I received it everything was in the box. Very easy to assemble. I only needed to use the short legs for my T.V.. Works great and looks good on my T.V.
If you don't want to mount your center channel speaker on the wall, then this is a great alternative.

Exactly what I needed, only one that I found would work

I own a KDS-60XBR2 and wanted to mount a center channel that was about 14" wide and 10" deep. This mount was perfect for the fit on top of the TV. Only problem I have with it is the front two "peg feet" are steel with no padding, so I suggest getting some foam pads to place underneath them before placing it on the front edge of your TV as they will scratch it. The rear feet come with double sided adhesive foam pads that work well. I personally only peeled off the side to stick to the shelfs feet and left the paper backing on the side touching the TV since I wasn't sure how hard it would be when it was time to remove it. Overall works great and is very reasonably priced. It has enough adjustment options to accomodate most new projection TV's but not the newest super slim cabinets and definitely not a plasma or flat screen LCD.
