I currently own a Da-lite 72' screen width (84" diagonal for 16:9) motorized screen with HCMW (High Contrast Matte White) material. Purchase around RM 4k and I wish to let go at around RM 2k. Reason is I'm moving to new house and going for fixed screen format (most likely will get the Carada screen at 118').

Hi,

I am still trying to figure out what my screen size should be. Basically the seating will be around 8 feet from the screen. Could someone recommend me a screen size and projector distance itself from the screen?

Thanx

8ft from the screen is quite near. I dunno whether you have any space behind your seating area. What is the size of the room? If have, you could possibly ceiling mount it at the back.

I have attached a useful link for you to calculate :

http://www.projectorcentral.com/projection...culator-pro.cfm

The motorised screen in HDTV format (16:9) from Draper would easily cost above RM1,550 for a 73" HCG. A 92" would be about RM1,800

Both Da-Lite and Carada are good screens. Hence, it comes with a slightly premium price tag.

Hi,

I am attaching the floor plan of my house. I am planning to put the screen at the red line

So, based on that could you guys recommend the screen size?

so, there shouldnt be a problem for me to put the screen at the area considering the seating distance?



jasonlky,

How far is your seating area from the screen? and how far is your projector mounted from the screen?

You need a short throw pj which is able to give big screen size at short length.

will either HD65/HD70 do the job?

Bro,

What about the unmotorised wall mounted screen with the same specs? How much does it cost?


Also,

Could you pm me your shop address n contact number as I will most probably drop by your shop one of these days..Could you do the HD65 projector demo at that time so that I can measure the size of the display for my home and check whether the screen size is suitable for me or not.

Thx
