HD Installers does everything we can to give you the best possible viewing experience when we install your Plasma TV or LCD TV. But one thing we run into often is that customer don't have a proper perspective of how close they can sit to a large screen television and still have a good viewing experience. Sitting the right distance from your LCD TV or plasma tv is an important part of the getting the best viewing experience. Sitting too far away from your screen definitely diminishes the overall impact of your investment on your new flat screen television. Additionally, sitting too close to a large screen is also less than ideal because you will find that you will get that same feeling you get from sitting to close to the screen at your local movie theater. If you're not sure how far away you should sit for optimum viewing, consult our suggested large screen installation distance calculator. It works for understanding the distance to install all large screen technologies including OLED TV, SED TV, plasma television and LCD television.

Q: How close can I sit to my large big screen flat planel LCD TV or plasma television without impacting my viewing experience?
A: The best way to you calculate how far to install your large big flat panel screen LCD or Plasma television is by multiplying one of the screen's dimensions (height, width, or diagonal) by some fixed number. The calculator above can give you recommendations for screen size and/or viewing distance. The top part of the calculator will give you an optimal viewing distance based on the screen size you enter in the left column. The lower part of the calculator should be used if you know where you want to put your television but are unsure of what screen size to choose. Measure the distance from the area where you will place the big wide screen LCD or Plasma TV to your normal viewing area, enter the amount in feet in the left-hand column and the calculator will display what we believe is an optimal screensize in the right-hand column.
