I have a dedicated Home theatre of the size 13x22. See attached for the image and dimentions. The problem is that the door opens on the shorter side (33 width) and on the other shorter side there is a big 8 window. Now I have couple of choices.
I would really appreciate, if you guys suggest me the best setup based upon your experiences. I want to maximize the screen area for the theater like feeling. I will be powering up with 7.1 system.
- Project on the side of the door and get max projection width of 99. The setup would be skewed toward one side of the room. The Cons is that the screen size is going to be very limited. I need to also go for behind the screen speakers, as I wouldnt have extra space for the speakers on the side of the screen.
- Abandon the window and install the dedicated screen on the other shorter side. This option is out, as we paying premium to get such big window and dont want to lose it.
- Install a motorized screen on top of the window and drop it when needed. I am hoping the speaker will still be an obstacle and I will not have the clear window access.
- Project on the lengthy side with short throw projector. I have shortlisted BenQ 1080ST+ for it. The only downside is that the viewing distance is going to be shorter.
