starvin marvin Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Does anyone know where I can obtain a stand for our Avtec TV? Spent ages searching the 'net with no luck, loads of wall brackets but no stands. Its currently fixed in the van via a "Vesa" bracket to the wall of the TV cupboard. I now want to use the TV indoors and need a stand as I don't want it fixed. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michele Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 WE have a spare stand BUT I don't think you have the new model by the sounds of it ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyishuk Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Maybe silly, have you tried asking Avtec ? On my few dealings with them, they have been very helpful Rgds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Try Capital stores they supplied my Avtec it came with a stand they may have one spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel B Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 You often find stands for various TVs on Ebay so you might get lucky there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never used e-bay, only looked at it twice, both times found it far too complicated for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that, its much better with the correct spelling, although no sign of a stand on their web site. I'll give them a ring tomorrow although stockists John Lewis are probably the favourite, excellent customer service. Once again many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starvin marvin Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 Would you believe it? Rang Avtex this morning...asked spares dept if they stock a stand for W164DR, chap says..."should be one in the box" So I have a look and there it was....not impressive just a simple kick out stand. Spares chap says..."you're lucky most fitters putting these in m/h's throw the stands away". Problem solved....meanwhile I'm off to Specsavers.

Guest JudgeMental Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Is there something a bit cheaper then avetex thats nearly as good? not a real budget job as screens usually not that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanracer Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I also need one of those as someone said kick out stands,any one got one or a link to one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletguy Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 JudgeMental - 2012-10-03 7:06 PM Is there something a bit cheaper then avetex thats nearly as good? not a real budget job as screens usually not that good There are.......but none will have as many features as Avtex. For one all Avtex sets are multi-standard so will receive foreign tv broadcasts, but the real plus which everyone goes for is the miniscule power consumption when on 12v. My only gripe is the woefully inadequate volume. My set is just about audible on full volume. It is the 10" version but that should not mean I need to have the thing set at full blast just to barely hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michele Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 can't complain just bought these two . The old one was good as well they are definately the best we have had so far and the volume is no prob . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess your right as do want analogue tuner for Spain to receive BBC on site I use. and USB to watch my movies/series etc.... sound is important but all these new slim style tvs whatever the size seem to suffer poor sound quality and need external speakers. does the avetex have a stereo out socket?

BUT! which one? there is a load of different sets...any recommendations and where best to buy one please.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be possible the larger sets have more acceptable audio level. The only reason I went for the 10" is space is at a premium in a Duetto and a 16" simply would not fit in.
