Re: The Russell Budget Build


Screen size can be calculated based on seating position and the minimum THX recommended 36 degree included viewing angle. However, you also need to balance that with leaving space for speakers beside it (if not an AT screen) and also the throw distance/brightness/resolution of the projector.

Treating the room:
- Broadband bass control
- Kill the front wall completely
- Hit the side wall reflection points.
- Thicker absorbtion on the middle of the rear wall to help minimize nulls. You may need/want a little more here to help minimize the bass issues due to seating being so close to the wall behind.
