What Size Screen Is Best For Viewing HDTV?
Most TV experts offer the following formula to determine HDTV set size: take the distance between your primary viewing seat and where the set will be located, and divide by the screen size. The ratio of the screen size to that distance should be no less than 1.5 and no greater than 2.5. Table 1 shows typical screen sizes and viewing distances so you can see how this translates.
