Our take on the Sanus VMA401

by Ralph Graves

You've wall-mounted your TV — why not wall-mount your Blu-ray player or game console, too? The Sanus VMA401 shelf lets you do just that. This sturdy, tempered glass shelf can hold a component weighing up to 15 lbs. You can route your A/V cables through an opening in the back bracket to keep your installation looking trim and neat..

Easy expansion

Got two or more components you want to mount under your TV? Not a problem. You can fit multiple VMA401s together to create an integrated shelving system. And you can even make small vertical adjustments after the shelf is installed, to get your components situated at just the right height.

    The first thing I noticed when I took the VMA401 out of the box was how hefty the tinted glass shelf was. That's a good thing — I expect it to be a rock-solid support for my gear. The second thing I noticed was that the back bracket was powder-coated steel. Very nice.

    The third thing I noticed was the front panel on the bracket was flexible plastic. It's molded to the exact shade of black as the bracket, so the bracket appears solid from a distance. This panel can be popped off, making running cables much easier. And when they're in place, the panel goes back on, covering them up.

    The VMA401's a simple design, but one that clearly a lot of thought went into.

    Works well, solid install

    Written By Jeff, Boulder, CO on Tuesday, June 04, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Works as intended, looks nice, almost a little too wide for our component we needed to put on it, but would easily hold a stereo component or large cable box.
    Pros:
    Looks Nice, hold a decent amount of weight, easy to install.
