Using a component wall mount or TV shelf is easy way to move your VCR, DVD player, cable box or other electronic component up and out of the way. Component mounts are designed to hold peripheral electronics like satellite boxes and game systems under or close to your flat screen TV so that you don't need extended cables or wires to connect one to the other. Mounting bracket manufacturers like Crimson AV, Peerless Mounts and Chief Mounts had this idea in mind when they released their lines of component mounts. Cambre developed component mountable shelves especially for gamers to hold game systems in place on the wall. Many component mounts include a cable management feature so you don't have to see any unsightly wires or cables running down your wall. In essence, a component mount is designed to help you organize your electronics while giving you back your counter space and tabletop areas. Many component shelves are modular so you can add enough shelves for all of your components. Perhaps you have some video games and DVDs to organize too. If so, check out our DVD cabinets and CD racks. You'll find a rack or cabinet that will matches your component shelf perfectly and then all will be in order!
If you have only one component, another item to consider using is a TV swivel shelf, or a TV riser. Risers for your TV are designed to go under your television while housing your component within. They lift the TV up on top of the component. This is a great counter top space-saving solution. Visit our TV Swivel Shelves section to view shelves and risers.
