Despite numerous complaints
about the coverage (which included delayed showings of live events, edited
versions of the all-important opening and closing ceremonies and a rather
uncomplimentary nationwide Twitter hash tag), the 2012 London Olympics have
gone down as the most watched event in US television history, beating the 2008
Beijing Olympics into second place. Around 219.4 million viewers tuned in over
the course of the 17-day event, with primetime coverage averaging around 31.1
million viewers every night. The incredible figures confirmed by NBC are just a
reflection of how well the Olympics were received across the entire globe.
The Olympic fever is set to
continue; in-keeping with the motto of this year’s games, “Inspire A
Generation”, many of the lesser-known sports have acquired thousands of new
fans, and the old favorites provided the same excitement as always. Sports such
as handball were introduced to wider audiences, while women’s boxing was
included in the Olympics for the first time, its champions garnering a legion
of new fans. Swimming, gymnastics and athletics were some of the most-watched
sports, cementing the superstar status of Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt, as
well as introducing the world to the likes of Ryan Lochte and up-and-comers
like Gabby Douglas.
With all of these new
sports to keep up with, the Paralympics still to come and a renewed interest in
athletics, swimming and gymnastics, many avid sports fans up and down the
country will be investing in brand new, state-of-the-art televisions, as well
as somewhere to store it when not in use. Those looking to purchase a new
high-definition television to ensure they never miss a millimeter of Usain
Bolt’s incredible runs, will undoubtedly be looking for a stylish and secure flat screen TV lift cabinet
in which to display it perfectly.
Motorized TV stands are
used in a variety of commercial environments such as hotels, restaurants and
corporate offices, but they look equally at home in a living space. With a
choice of traditional
TV lift units, complete with unique carvings and authentic wood finishes,
or contemporary flat
screen TV lift furniture with sleek and minimalist lines, Cabinet-Tronix
has a style to suit any interior. The smooth lifting mechanism within the
cabinet adds a technological cutting-edge to the home, whilst added extras
including Bluetooth headsets, universal remotes and 360 degree rotation make
these units the ultimate blend of convenience and luxury. As well as opulence
and style, the units are incredibly hardwearing and will be a staple within the
home for many Olympic years to come, capturing every medal, every new record,
