The short answer is "very carefully"...

Seriously, I am looking at wall-mounting a 61" Samsung LED DLP projection TV myself that has a BEAUTIFUL picture, and a very nice price.

Some things to consider:

1) KNOW your underlying stud/frame structure. I had to open a chimney chase and add lots of wood to ensure anything I do mount will stay where I put it.

2) Create a SOLID platform of some type for the unit's base to rest on. I thought of a piece of oak or similar sturdy wood painted black (I know, I hate to paint such pretty wood) due to strength. Consider mounting this to the wall with a piano hinge for added security and easier adjustment of any tilt. A lip mounted on the front should keep the TV from sliding off. Ask yourself if this is your living room or a sports bar, and design accordingly. You can always get it up on the mount and keep it there, but at what price esthetically?

3) Since drilling into the cabinet to mount anchors is not a good idea (at a minimum you'll void the warranty), you will probably do best locating some sort of a black (or other matching color) steel mesh, wire, or bracket to hold/support the corners of the TV.

4) Make sure all mounts are secure and will stay that way. If you feel that you aren't doing something right, or you don't feel comfortable doing this type of project, DON'T DO IT!

A little prayer probably wouldn't hurt either.

Cheers,
