Re: panasonic pt ae900 throw distance

If you use the following calculator from the projectorcentral website for the panny 900 it will let you set a number of variables including screen size and throw distance. It would suggest that 22' is outside the maximum range for a 92" screen, so you may wish to ceiling mount further down the room if you can, or buy a bigger screen. Hope this helps?

hi
thank you for the reply
i did have look on projectar central and did get the same results but was hopeing i did something wrong
i dont think i can go bigger than a 92" screen as not enough space,
there is no problem with moving projector forward.i was just trying to keep projector from being over the seating area and having it behind the seating on back wall
cheers
