I'd suggest a max of 84" wide (84" x 47.25")

What size is your room?
Is it light-controlled?
What type of screen?

thanks for the reply!

well my livingroom isn't completely dark, but it does have black drapes and grey walls.
dimensions are 232inches in length and 140 inches in width.

the projector has to be mounted in the ceiling behind my couch so i'm gonna have to mount the screen in the middle of the room to.

whats the optimal wieving distance from a screen that size?

best regards

The front row should optimally be about 1.3x-1.5x the screen width. So for a 84" wide screen, I would place the front row of seats at 109" to 126" away from the screen.

The projector's throw distance usually ends up between the first and second row of seats.
