proper viewing distance


Hey all,
I'm planning a home theater within my home plans and i'm wondering what the ratio for veiwing distance is...height times 2? width times 2? width times 1.5? I have no clue...I would be using dlp or lcd with hopefully an 8 foot wide by 4.5 16:9 screen, and therefore 6x4.5 4:3 screen...right now I have the room length at approx. 17.6 feet...i want two rows of seating...any input? also, how far away should the speakers be from the couch? thanks for all the help!

Jay
