Looking at either a 55" Panasonic GT30 or a 60" Panasonic ST30 and need a wallmount bracket for it. Lets say priced under 100 bucks...

First time to look for them so I am not sure what features I really need and which ones I dont.....

    Ditto the Monoprice. They've got tons of them in different configurations for whatever type of setup you might be aiming for, and they are all priced right.

    RT-12, CS350-LS, PSW-300, Infinity Overture 1, Monoprice RC-65i
    Adcom GFA-545II, GFA-6000, Outlaw Audio 990, Netgear NeoTV
    Denon DCM-460, DMD-1000, Sony BDP-360, Bravia KDL-40Z4100/S
    Monster AVL-300, HTS-2500 MKII

    My 60" GT30 is on a Cheetah mount. It's a swivel mount which you might not need.

    I have had good luck with thier mounts (I have 3 of them) and thier prices are reasonable. Just don't trust the level that is built into thier mounts.

    My other 2 Cheetah mounts are these type

    We haven't had any issues with the four Monoprice wall mounts in our household.

    I went with Sanus at Amazon. LT-25. A hair over $100, but its a 65" 100 lb. plasma and I needed the features it offers.
    Do you hear that buzzing noise? :confused:

    I got some extras I bought and not currently using that fits up to a 65 inch tv. It tilts up and down and puts the tv about 2 inches or so from the wall. It's very well built and yours if you want it free of charge.

    I would be honored to take it. Let me know what you need from me.

    On another note talked to the guy on the Kuro you PM'd me about. If its around Friday more than likely I will be going to pick it up. He's moving so there is a chance he might sell it before I can get up there. If so no worries, I wont cry over spilt milk there.

    He didnt know how many hours he had on it, nor when he purchased it, but given his other gear I think I am good to get it.....

    Still debating. Would be a 3 hour trip ONE WAY to get it. That and transporting it in a Malibu might be a bit tricky......

    about 98% sure I want it, but cant pick it up till Friday at the earliest....

    Got a nice one from Costco that is sturdy as hell. They had all kinds of mounts under 100 bucks.

    Cant find that model for under 1500 total which is my limit. Found it at Sams for 1600 (which I was willing to stretch the budget for) but after sales tax its 1700 and that wont fly...
