Plasma and LCD screens mounted on plasterboard and stud walls
We fitted 4 screens today in London. A Pioneer 50" and a 40" LCD Samsung, both on a plasterboard wall. All the cables such as HDMI had already been chased, and hidden into the wall.
A Panasonic screen was mounted using an articulated arm bracket on a stud wall. This would normally be a problem because of the lack of a secure fixing but as the screen was light coupled with being able to locate a central stud with our detector it was possible.
The fourth screen was a 42" Samsung plasma TV screen which was mounted on chimney breast with just surface mounted cables in trunking. We also had to extend the Sky cables. This plasma screen was fitted on a tilt bracket to help extend the viewing angle.

Mirror plasma screen fitting
The plasterers then came in and finished the decoration. After which, we returned for a final wall mounting and fitting of the plasma TV.
Pioneer to stop making plasma panels
Recent claims suggest that in favour of sourcing plasma panels through a third-party, this may only be the start of changes taking place at Pioneer. It’s now being said that the company is finalizing plans to out source the whole lot.
Last week, Japanese newspaper Asahi reported that Pioneer is looking to buy 46in and smaller plasma display panels from Matsushita Electric Industries, owner of the Panasonic brand, or from Hitachi.
A spokesperson for Pioneer later confirmed that the company is reviewing its plasma display business because of poor sales performance.
Japanese publication Nikkei, citing company sources, today claimed that Pioneer is finalising plans to buy in all sizes of plasma panels and shut down one of its three plasma production sites in Japan this year.
Panasonic TH37PX70 Plasma TV -1080P
Panasonic TH37PX70 37 inch Plasma TV is avaliable in ether wall mounted or pedestal mounted versions. The screen is finished in high gloss piano black with the speakers mounted underneath the screen. Other key points are that it has 2 HDMI ports and is fully 1080p HD compatible.
Starting slowly with a sub-standard specification, the Panasonic TH37PX70 didn’t get us excited initially, but once we checked out its second-to-none performance we were completely turned around. Our excitement took over, and regardless of trying, we just couldn’t take our eyes off the Panasonic TH37PX70 Television.
Vogel's Electric Wall Mount for Plasma and LCD screens
The Glider™ is unique in many ways. It moves like no other wall support on the market, gliding along the wall while turning at the same time in a impressively fluid and efficient motion. It features soft-start en soft-stop for safety and style, as well as user-programmable pre-sets for often used viewing angles. Another great feature is the auto-home function: the Glider™ senses when the TV is switched off and will return to the wall automatically! Suitable for 42-60'' screens. This wall mount is suitable for wall mounting fitting of most manufacturers of plasma and LCD screens.
