The LED TV Unit That Gives You the Most for Your Money

LED lighting can make a TV unit feel warm and atmospheric in the evening, but it is also the feature most likely to distract from weaker construction. In this guide we explain how to choose an LED TV unit that genuinely earns its place in your living room. We start with the furniture itself, covering rigid tops, even finishes, well fitted doors and drawers, practical storage and cable management, because the cabinet is what you are really investing in. We then look at where lighting works best, from strips under the unit that create a floating effect to bias lighting behind the screen, and explain what to check for colour temperature, dimming, diffusion and even spread. We also cover controls, power leads and replaceable strips, which finishes show a glow most attractively, sizing and wall mounting, and how LED lighting fits into a layered scheme alongside floor and table lamps....
