Something to look into. Even if they're not 2.75" wide
you can move them back a little behind hdtv frame.
We needed a digital tv upgrade for the custom cabinet space in our kitchen. Luckily, the Samsung LN19A450 was highly rated because it was the only 19 in on the market the fit the 14.25 inch high shelf. There is 2.75 in open on either side of the set, however.
Unfortunately, in addition to the placement of the speakers (bottom rear), this set is also reviewed with poor sound quality and it sounds horrible in the spot.
What kind of mini-speakers can we add to help the sound? This is a small tv just for the kitchen so extravagant set-ups are not necessary. Price is also a consideration since we only spent $289 for the tv and don't want to spend $200 on the speakers alone.
Thanks for the advice.
