I want to mount a 22"-26" lcd tv in my kitchen and also run coax to an hd cable box. The problem I am having is finding a mount that will also hold the cable box. All of the mounts that I see online and in stores only hold the tv. I explained this to a salesperson at an electronics store this past weekend and he looked at me like I was crazy.

Does anybody have any suggestions?

I strive to be the kind of person that my dog thinks I am.

    Hi - have you looked around on racksandstands.com?

    They seem to have mount accessories that'll hold other video components.

    It's hard to find ones that hold a cablebox too.. because it'd have to hang down off the back of the mount. Have you looked at amazon or monoprice?

    LOL, I would have looked at you crazy as well.

    Get a small shelf to put the cable box on under the TV.

    Mount the TV with a standard mount and put the cable box in a cabinet (one of the kitchen cabinets). Then use a IR repeater for the signals. You can get them for about $40. That way the box is out of sight, not all gaudy looking in the middle of the kitchen but will still work perfectly. This is how I have the TV set up in my living room with the cable box in the basement.
