We bought a 65" and just mounted it to the fireplace, and just before getting rid of the entertainment center (fits a 40" tube version), we figured we needed something for devices and disks (we still have disks!) So I set the entertainment center to the left, built a basic wooden rack that fits in that space, and there we hold the PS4, controllers / chargers, disks for that and for movies, remotes, and other devices. It's worked out well.
Peanut, take your 49" back and get something awesome, and make the entertainment center work for you in a different way. 🙂
