There’s much more to a television cabinet then merely mounting your TV.
Back in the day you could use pretty much anything as a television stand; all you needed was something to sit your television on and that was that. Today there is so much more to it! Especially if you’re rocking a 60 inch LCD TV with a DVD/Blue-Ray player, your satellite television box, perhaps an Xbox or some other form of console, perhaps a modem for the TV and internet too. Try squeezing all of that onto one little cabinet, it never quite works out as well as you’d have hoped and you end up with all manner of wires tangled up and stressing you out.
