Looking for some ideas. At present, I have 56" Samsung DLP which I will likely swap for a projector when my room is finished, but for now am modelling around it (not sure if I will have any cash left ;-)
My room is 17 deep. Assuming I put in some chairs which recline, I'm expecting I'll need 4 1/2 feet or so per row, putting my first row at 11 feet off the front wall give or take. If my screen is 2 feet off the wall, this leaves me a little close in the front row based upon my current set (and 2xwidth distance modelling) but really close if I try and stick up an 8' diagonal screen.
Do my numbers sound off? Has anyone built two rows in a project at this depth and found the front row to remain at a reasonable distance?
Its clearly lots of room for one row, but I'm challenged by width to do more than 3 seats wide, and would like at least 4. Not sure if my room is just too small.
Thanks,
