Selecting your Plasma TV, LCD TV or DLP Television Screen size
The expression "bigger is better" probably holds true more for TVs than for any other A/V product. Our experience has been that in most situations - and especially for a home theater system - you should go with the largest screen your room, viewing position, and budget will accommodate. We occasionally hear from customers who wish they'd gotten a bigger TV, but we never hear them wishing for a smaller one.
Sitting the right distance from your TV is an important part of optimizing the viewing experience. Sitting too far away from a small- or medium-sized screen definitely diminishes the overall impact. At the same time, sitting too close to a large screen is also less than ideal. A good indication that you're sitting too close to a screen is if you find that you're distracted by being aware of the screen's "structure" - those tiny "dots" (pixels), and for CRT-based TVs, horizontal scan lines.
The following is a guide on how far to sit away from your selected television:
TV SCREEN SIZE SUGGESTED VIEW DISTANCE 30" 6.5 feet 35" 7.5 feet 40" 8.5 feet 45" 9.5 feet 50" 10.5 feet 55" 11.5 feet 60" 12.5 feet 65" 14 feet
