Where The Bracket Should Be Positioned In A Room?

Ideally you should choose a location where very little reshuffling of furniture already within the room requires to take place. If you can afford try avoid placing it in a position where it is too close to a window as this can lead to the clarity of the picture on the screen becoming distorted because more bright light will be able to bounce on to it. If you do need to place your plasma TV mounts close to a natural light source then make sure that you can cover this up during the day with blinds or curtains.

If you can place it in a position where light is shining on top of the TV as this will help to reduce the level of strain being placed on your eyes as you watch TV.
