ABSTRACT:
An audio visual system is provided comprising a housing, a video display, at least one speaker support coupled to at least one of the display and the housing, and at least one speaker mounted to and supported by the speaker support, the housing and the at least one speaker each having a front wall, the display and the at least one speaker support being movable from a first state, where the display and the at least one speaker, which is in a first position, are in the housing and hidden from view when viewing the front wall of the housing, to a second state, where the display and the at least one speaker are spaced from the housing and at least partially unobstructed thereby with the at least one speaker being in a second position differently spaced from the display than when in the first position. Among the many advantages of the invention is that the video display and speakers can be hidden from view when the system is not in use. Alternatively, the speaker can be replaced with a speaker box adapted to contain or hold a speaker.
