Need help with TV stand that will fit a Polk CS2

Northman11

I am slowly building up my home theater room and recently purchased a Polk CS2 to go along with my Monitor 70s and 30s. Now I just need to find a tv stand that will fit the CS2 inside of it. I will wall mount a 65" plasma tv over the tv stand so I'm not looking at anything too tall. It needs to have enough room for my AVR, cable box, Xbox, and a blu-ray player.

So far my search fu hasn't helped in my quest for a tv stand. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

First off, welcome to Club Polk. That CS2 is a beast, and can be hard to accommodate, but you will be glad you got it. I don't know of any specific models off hand, but any 3 shelf system should work. Easy for me to say because I don't know your taste, but I would check out Walmart, Target, even Best Buy. Good luck.

So IF the CS2 is a beast at 7-3/4" H x 21-1/4" W x 11-1/8" D & 17lb then what is a CSi5 at 7-11/16" H x 24" W x 14-1/2" D & 29lbs ???

Sorry, just had to ask....:D

As far as a stand, it really depends on your style and budget....
wood or granite?? Modern or traditional?

If clean, modern and high SQ is your style, I love the look of these:

Or more traditional style

LOL, I know the CS2 is by no means the biggest, baddest center in the Polk lineup, and probably pales in comaparison to many. Was just comparing it to the CS1, lol.

WELCOME TO CLUB POLK!!

How much are you willing to spend because I know of a unit that will house that? Don't recall the model at this point. Two friends have a cabinet that can house a CS2 perfectly and lots of other gear as well. I'm pretty sure it runs over 400 dollars though. A nice piece of furniture.

I'll see if I can download a pic? And find the model later!

this stand from best buy works well for me. its built like a tank, holds a ton of gear and plenty of room for a center. the post is removable and the tv mount also doubles as a wall mount for any size flat screen.

I should have mentioned this in the original post. I'd like to find something that allowed the components to be inside the cabinetry. I have two little children and the less that they see, the less that they are tempted to mess with Plus, it allows me to keep the wiring all neat and tidy. I will definitely take a look at the link you guys posted.

cnh - I'd definitely be interested in a pic.

I have from Sears a 32" Sony TV, and I bought with it, a ( TechCraft FS3212 - silver stand that had glass doors { still have 'em, but took off for my CS2 } works fine.
