In all honesty it depends on the television.
Some people seem to have problems with this and others don't. I've had a P.O.S. admiral in my cab at about a 30 degree angle for about 8 months now with no distortion what-so-ever. Tv's with a good deguasser usually aren't effected. But many tv's will show discoloration if they're on for several hours at a time. Usually though, a good tv will correct itself once you turn it off and on again.

: I am about to put the TV in my cab and I have one last concern before mounting the shelf. What is the greatest angle it can sit at without picture distortion, be it immediate or over time. I have built my cab by Lusid's plans, and I had planned at mounting it at the same angle as the sides panels. I have heard about discoloration in the cornors of the TV if it is angled, but how much of an angle? Not that it should matter, but its an 1998 RCA 25" with S-Video. Any input is appreciated, especially if you have had an angled TV in your cab or 1-2 years. Thanks.
