Wall mount Sonos Arc with recessed TV

Hi all, I’m in the process of building an entertainment unit including an electric fireplace and a 65” TV.
 

Originally I was planning on recessing the tv into the wall so that it would sit flush with the surface but as I’m now considering the Arc I think this might not look right as the Arc will need to be surface mounted and not recessed.
 

Any thoughts/suggestions on the best way to approach this if I want to go ahead with the ARC? Should I just forgo the recessing of the TV or have others gone ahead with a similar setup? (Recessed TV with surface mounted Arc) 

Pictures would be appreciated! 
 

Thanks in advance.

A contrarian approach would be mounting Arc and the TV on a pull-out arm. This approach would work best if there is a SUB. And, you should use Trueplay during setup.

Thanks for the response! So with the pull-out arm approach, would the same clearances still apply? (Arc sits 4” below the TV)

Yes, however, I suppose that one could argue that this requirement is relaxed if the Arc mounting surface is in the same plane as the TV screen, but I can’t imagine that this will be visually attractive.
