Hi all, have been reading and researching here quite a bit and I really appreciate all the information.
A picture of the room is included above.
The total width is 11'7" (139 inches)
The vent cover on the left wall is at 8'0.5" (96.5")
The total ceiling height is 9'10" (118 inches)
My current thought is to have a custom "Mesh-M6 Impact Projection Screen w/Netting" built by par2pro to fill the width and maintain a 4:3 aspect ratio.
I would order a screen 10'8" (128") wide x 8' (96") high. The top and side netting comes out 6'. We'll try to hit from 10' away from the screen.
I like the par2pro product with the integrated netting but I'm not sure how much resolution the mesh screen can reasonably handle?
Should I stick to a XGA or WXGA projector like the BenQ MW632ST (needs to be mounted 10'1" away with a -2" vertical offset)?
This seems to be the best "budget" option.
In the 16:9 options, the BenQ HT2150ST would need to be mounted at 10'9" with a -2" vertical offset. The Optoma GT1080Darbee would need to be at 7'1" with a -15" vertical offset. Any other recommendations with throw distances/offsets in the middle of those two?
After typing it all out, I am leaning toward one of the 16:9 options because I don't think anyone regrets having too much resolution, even if I'm scaling it to 4:3.
It seems like the Optoma mounting option might be better, in front of the hitter and snugged up to the ceiling?
I would love any feedback on my planned screen size and how far to setup and hit from the screen as well!
