How far back do you sit from that sucker? For about 2 years, I had a 113" screen, and that worked out very well for me, but when I got my new projector, I mounted it in the same exact spot as the other one, but the screen size was much larger, 131 inches. I was going to remount it a bit closer, but I just got lazy, but there are times when I think I'm a bit past the point of diminishing returns in regards to screen size. I think around 120 inches or so would probably be a bit better. I'm just too lazy right now to mess with it, but I couldn't even imagine 175 inches. When I watch regular TV type stuff (basically anything non-high def), it looks pretty damn craptacular blown up to 131 inches, but having that blown up to 175 inches would be god awful, I would imagine. I'm sure very high quality high def sources look good on it, but man, you must have a really huge room to have a screen that huge. I'm sitting like 19 feet from my screen, so to have a 175 inch screen, I would have to sit way farther than that. Hmm. Interesting.
