Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Ditto

Thanks to all for sharing your TV size experiences with me. Like I did with the 65" mock last weekend, this Saturday night I finished the 55" mock, precisely cut to 1/8" of the Sony A95L specs. I spent much of that night and today placing them in various locations and distances in the room . I've narrowed my chosen locations down to two.

One last question: Whether I go with the 55" or 65" I would want the screen to be between 13.5 and 14 ft from my eyes, with the TV between my floor standing speakers and the speakers 10 to 11 ft from me.

At that distance and looking at the center of the 55" mock the entire screen falls within the full viewing area of my eyes. But this isn't so with the 65" mock. Because of this difference I wondering how my eyes would react while watching moving or even stable images on a 65" TV. Wouldn't they be compelled to hunt across the screen a lot more than they would with the 55" screen?

Indeed, for those of you who sit between ~ 8 ft to 11 ft from a 65" or 77" screen, do find your eyes get especially tired from hunting for aspects of images while viewing a screen that big and from that distance? OTOH, everyone's eyes must zoom around the huge screen in movie cinemas, though I haven't been in one for many years, nor probably ever will again, in part for this reason.

But again, don't you guys get some kind of eyestrain if or because your field of vision is overshot by your > 55" or > 65" screen size?
