55" TV - What height?

Looking for some expert opinions and advice as I don't want to have to do it twice!

55" TV being wall mounted in living room, ceiling height is 2250mm - what height should I mount the TV at?

Get your tape measures out!

Use masking tape to mask the outline of the TV on the wall you wish to mount it and sit in your viewing position. Adjust for preference.

At eye level when you're sitting down.

Great tool, thanks.

The tilt angle seems to be important and the bracket I have goes to 12 degrees so I think best height would be around 90cm to the bottom of the screen.

^This.

If you're looking up at it then it's too high.
