The Top BDI TV Stands for Streamers

Every day more and more people are ditching their cable boxes for streaming services. Fortune reports that—for the first time—more people are paying for streaming services than for cable TV.

If you are among the millions of streaming-only subscribers who have cut the cord, you may no longer require a sophisticated home entertainment setup. However, you may still need a cabinet that can house smaller components and accessories while complementing your space.

Here are some great BDI television cabinets to consider for a more compact media setup. 

Key Takeaways: Choosing a TV Stand for Streaming

Streaming-focused entertainment systems may require fewer components, but the right media cabinet should still provide organized storage, clear sound, proper ventilation, and a design that fits the room.

  1. Choose a cabinet that matches a streamlined media setup. Cord-cutters may not need space for a large collection of traditional AV components, making a slimmer or more compact media cabinet a practical solution.
  2. Plan storage for more than the streaming device. Allow room for soundbars, gaming consoles, routers, remotes, accessories, and any other equipment that supports the entertainment system.
  3. Look for remote-friendly and acoustically transparent doors. Louvered, perforated, or patterned doors can conceal electronics while allowing sound, airflow, and remote-control signals to pass through.
  4. Prioritize dedicated soundbar storage. A properly positioned soundbar shelf keeps audio equipment out of sight without sacrificing clear dialogue, music, or overall sound performance.
  5. Protect electronics with flow-through ventilation. Ventilated shelves, doors, bases, and rear panels help prevent heat from building up around streaming devices, gaming systems, and other components.
  6. Use integrated cable management to maintain a cleaner setup. Cable openings, routing systems, and rear access panels keep power cords and connections organized while simplifying installation and updates.
  7. Match the cabinet to the television and available floor space. Consider TV size, cabinet width, room layout, and whether a corner-friendly or slim-profile design would make better use of the space.
