Hello, everyone.

I recently got a pretty good deal on a Q900, and have finally been able to replace my eleven year-old Sharp Aquos. While this is pretty exciting, I'm honestly a little overwhelmed by the choices because, as far as TV stands go, as the world seemed like a much simpler and more innocent place when I was shopping for a stand that could accommodate a 40-inch TV.

I'd like to spend under $300 for a stand (can go up to $400, if I see something that represents a huge jump in quality) - I realize that I'm not going to get anything that's of exceptional workmanship for this price, but budgets are tough things to work around, especially during periods of uncertainty like this one.

In terms of what I'm looking for, I'm a pretty simple guy. I'd prefer something that looks nice (i.e., not dorm-room chic), allows my equipment to breathe well (I'm primarily going to be using my TV for console gaming and movies), and has a decent cord-management system. I'm currently looking to purchase something like this, but I've never had a home theater before, so I'm certainly open to additional suggestions or advice. A stand that comes pre-assembled or is easy to assemble would also be very much preferred, but that's not a must.

Thank you for taking the time to read all this, and thanks in advance for any help and/or resources you're able to give me.

I am looking to purchase a 75" tv. A Vizio P75fi or Samsung NU8000 are examples of what I'm considering. What I am struggling with is finding a tv stand that will hold them. All my internet searches give mostly 70" or below stands. Budget for a stand is $500 or less- less is definitely a bonus. Any guidance?
