Will a 27 inch tv fit in my cab?
« on: September 28, 2003, 06:25:45 pm »
My cab is based on lucids design. I have about 26 inchs to fit a tv.

I really wanted to get a 25inch tv, but they are hard to find and are kinda expensive (im looking at used tv's).

There are however several cheap-ish 27 inch tvs I can get my hands on, but the case is whether or not it could fit in the cab.

I have a 27inch tv in my room, but because of the speakers it adds about an extra 6 inches total.

Now if I could find a tv, without side mounted speakers (say 1 inch either side) would it fit?

Anyone used a 27 inch tv in there cab?

any replys thanks.

I have one that is 25 3/4".  Check my website for the model number.  It was a sharp tv from best buy.

My cabinet is a modified version of Lucid's.  I used a 27" Toshiba TV in mine, but I made the cabinet slightly wider (by an inch or 2 if I remember correctly) just so I could fit the TV in.  Have you already built your cabinet?  I waited until I got a TV so I could build the cabinet to fit it.

Yeah its pretty much built. Im just having a hard enough time finding used 25inch tvs, and even 27" now to think of it. I might go with a 24inch but ill wait a while and see.

I have the Toshiba 27A33 (I think that's the model #).
It's 25 3/4" wide.
I also have a JVC 27" TV (27S33) in another cab that's 25 3/4" wide.

I have a 27" Sony that fits the width of my LuSid-based cabinet.  The problem for me is the depth of the TV is too much-it sticks out the front.  I suppose I could cut a hole in the back and let it stick out there, but I'm planning on replacing the TV with the WG D9200 which isn't as deep.
