Will I need a new mount?

Howdy, technologically savvy SRK heads. I apologize if this belongs in a general HDTV thread I was too lazy to look for.

On my wall is a Sony Wega 32". It’s a KLV-s32A10 or something like that. I’m getting a 42" JVC for Christmas. The existing mount is a hanging mount.

Both TVs are VESA compliant. Should I anticipate getting a new mounting kit?

It’s really dependant on your original mount’s specifications. Usually the mount should indicate the maximum weight limit, and the TV size. If the new TV is under that specific weight and size limit, then it should be fine.

Thanks :tup:. Looks like I’ve got some more research to do. It amuses me how the 42" weighs 5lbs less than the 32".
