So how big is the box?

50HX81

Cabinet: (W) 46 3/16 x (H) 50 3/8 x (D) 21 7/8 - 240 lbs
Carton: (W) 51 1/4 x (H) 55 1/8 x (D) 27 1/8 - 265 lbs

 

This is the mockup of the 50HX81 I built. It is of the exact same dimensions as the TV. It has multiple purposes: First, it insures that the TV actually fits in my narrow staircase leading downstairs. Second, I used it to calculate line of sight from the second row of seat in my HT room (see last pic below).

One view, side of the box... nowhere to grab the beast here!

And another view, front of the box... nowhere to grab onto the box here either!

The top of the box just lifts right off. The only sturdy part in the whole box is the bottom section. Notice the gap, yep, it's forklift friendly! Just undo the side of the box and let the TV roll out!

And this is the view from the TV's perspective! I used the mockup to calculate the height of the seatbacks for the front row, they had to be lowered to allow perfect line of sight for the folks in the back!
