The SD-H400 is not designed to support a
heavy load, such as a TV. Your SD-H400 is
only capable of supporting the weight of one
or two common A/V components such as
VCRs or A/V receivers (provided they have
four good, broad, padded feet that distribute
of the weight near the corners of the SD-
H400).
Also, avoid stacking your SD-H400 on top
of other electronic components—such as
VCRs, A/V receivers—or the vents of your
TV.
