You can always extend your short wall by making a fake wall extension. However, do take note that you cannot mount anything on this fake wall extension, but @ least you can mount your TV to the extreme of the current short wall & with the extension fake wall, it looks "centralised".

Actually it is the lesser of 2 evils. An extenstion of the SCV point to the long wall cost lets say $100, and the building of the fake wall to lengthen the short wall will cost how $? My setup is the TV on the long wall. When my sofa is here on the 23 or 27, then I can take photo and show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dunno which architecture came out with the design and placement of the scv points. The short wall so near to the windows some more. Quite weird to use it for TV without wall extension. really LPPL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, that's what I did anyway. FOC as part of thw whole reno since we doing false ceiling. Can't have one side of the wall long and the other short, will make the false ceiling weird. And by the way, my ID actually conceal the actual cable (tv) point, so the other day Starhub personnel came down to enable my cable tv, they actually will check the whole house and indicate at every point that the cable (tv) point is enabled. And advise for all is plse do not terminate your cable tv account from the old house, Starhub will enable your cable points at new house FOC (I fax the hdb letter indicating i got the keys). No new sign-up allowed, Note that before Starhub enabled the cable tv points, your tv is able to tune to RTM2 & TV3 but not RTM1, upon activation, is able to tune to RTM1 and the usual channels but you will lose free coverage to RTM2 & TV3 (unless using boosters) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
