I have a small TV-room. Wall to wall it's 10.5 feet. Do you guys think I can still use a DLP/LCD projector?
If I put the screen directly on the wall, and put a projector on the opposite wall, I imagine the throw distance would be something like 8.5-9 feet (does this seem correct?), and viewing distance something like 7.5-8 feet. Is this doable? What would be the largest picture size I could get, theoretically and practically? I imagine something like 55" would be OK.
I would only use the projector for DVD's, not TV (not HDTV either). I've seen the Sony VPL-CX1 SuperLite for about $1800, that's the one I'm thinking of. Is that a decent projector for this?
The reason I'm thinking of FP is that it would hopefully give me an extra 2-2.5 feet of viewing distance, so I could get a larger picture, compared to an RPTV.
Any ideas or thoughts about this?
