Motorized Tilt, Swivel Flat Panel Display Mount
September 29, 2006
I suppose we could file this one under the only-a-matter-of-time category, with flat panel displays continuing to grow in popularity we’re seeing an increase in the number of companies providing mounting solutions, and now we have an entirely new mounting solution to boot.
K2’s X-arm mount expands on the typical features found in flat-panel mounts, by automating the tilt, swivel and telescoping functions, which are then user adjustable via remote control. The K2 ‘X-Arm’ motorized flat-panel display mount, telescopes up to 12”, tilts 7 degrees up - 25 degree down, swivels up to 56 degrees from left to right, flush mounts from the wall 4.6”, includes an infra-red remote control (RS232 compliant as well) and can accommodate displays from 37” to 61”.
Obviously this is a custom installation solution and given the relative complexity of the design, the X-Arm also carries a custom-installation appropriate price tag of $1995. (hardware only) However given the potential headaches this mount could cure, the X-Arm will no doubt find a comfortable niche in the custom home theater installation market.

I have been shopping around for flat panel mounts and while shopping really liked the sleek features Moview products had to offer. They have a flush, tilt and full motion option for mounts. Even though the mounts are not motorized I feel that they dont stick out as much and the focus is more on the TV rather than the mount. Also the large full motion mount from Moview is only $415 which is less than one forth the price of the X-arm.
