Looking for a tv mount

I am trying to fit a center channel under my tv, but there simply isn't enough room.  So I'm trying to find a mount that can hold my tv a little high while allowing a center channel to be placed underneath.  The tv is a Samsung 55" curved tv and the  center channel is 18 3/4" x 10 3/4" x 8". I don't trust mounting it above and I can't wall mount any of it.  Additionally the tv stand I have is 16" deep and I can't get a deeper stand.

 

Many of the stands I saw wouldn't raise the tv at all, or are too big to sleekly throw the center channel under.

 

What are some options?

I bought this one amazon specifically for the same reason you did: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BTBVV5Q/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It works wonders and actually makes my 55 inch samsung tv (non curved though) look a lot more expensive than it is, I currently have a Klipsch RP-250C Center Channel Speaker underneath it which is a 5 inch speaker and I still only have the tv at it's medium height on the stand, it could be even higher.

@radmanhs, you first thing to do would be to check the tv's manual and find out what size is the VESA mount that is supports and then know the weight of your tv, then you find a mount that is suitable. Note there are two types of mounts, one that attaches to the wall and one that attaches to a desk, the wall mount would be more sturdy so make sure you have space to pass the mount from the wall to your tv. Without knowing these things you won't be able to get a proper mount.

 

For best sound you will want to bring the center channel to the edge of your stand and have the tv just over the center channel, not before or after.

You're welcome, it looks absolute beautiful with the tempered glass, could you mark it as solved and give me a thumbs up so I get points on the form? This is the first time I've solved someone's else problem here that well and fast. Thanks!
