This unit has been announced at CEDIA. Please post speculation in this thread.
How do I calculate throw distances? I have a Screen Excellence Enlightor 4k , 90" wide at the moment.
Im thinking I might be able to fit in a 110" wide 2.35:1, but am a bit limited in throw distance.
I think the new screen will give me a 48" image height, and playing around yesterday, I couldn't get the image to shift down far enough to make that image fit on where the new screen would be positioned. This would lead to some Keystone correction, which I read on here is a big no-no.
If I gan about 6" in throw, will it let the screen shift lower? Are the throws and lens shift abilities the same on this years models as the X500 I currently have.
Also, would it be uncomfortable to sit 90" from a 110" wide scope screen? Cant move seats as the side surrounds are positioned to suit that seating position, as are the Atmos speakers.
Or should I just mask the current screen to 16:9 and be done with it? Seating at 1 x screen width is pretty close anyway I guess.
