Full Version: 17" medium throw
I'm finally looking to build a PJ but the room that I have in mind is fairly narrow, and trying to find a good 15" LCD nowdays is becoming difficult, plus I'd like HD. The standard kit is to small for a 17" and the pro kit throw is to long. Anyone have any suggestions? the throw will only be 10ft I know I could do a bigger LCD but thats more $$ Thanks for any suggestions

I would recommend a wider triplet with a short throw.An 80mm for example will "catch" more of the lcd than a 60mm,even though both may have a focal length of 330mm.You can find them even wider.I think benjimatt has a 135mm triplet.You just have to do some searching.
