Flatnate's Theater Build

I'm afraid that taller screen (which could be sweet for row one) might may be too low to the floor for the second row to enjoy as much (assuming I only stick with a 7 inch riser). The relatively low ceiling height really doesn't lend itself well to going higher on that rear riser.

Either way, I think I have to get the "scope bug" out of my system at this point... as irrational as that may be.

There is something that is very alluring about it. I'm not sure if I'd call it a bug per say, but your right I'm going to take it for a spin as well. I don't remember the measurements off the top of my head but I'm aiming for 125" diagonal for my build.

I have a 14ft wide wall but due to a lot of challenges with my build. I am restricted to 11ft
