Picking the appropriate screen size for a new LCD television can be an exercise in futility. Many consumers are confused about how large the LCD screen should be for the space, and there are numerous methods to determine the correct distance a viewer should sit from the screen. Use the following tips to help you pick the LCD TV screen size that's right for you.
Instructions
1. Determine the size of the space the LCD television will be located. This measurement will be the critical factor in determining the screen's size.
2. Place all furniture and seating areas where they are most comfortable to the viewer. Start with where the furniture is at present and see if that configuration is still appropriate for an LCD television.
3. Calculate the distance from the viewing area to where the LCD television will be. A 35-inch LCD television or smaller should be viewed from approximately 10 feet away. Larger sized screens require a larger, deeper viewing distance. A 60-inch LCD screen should be viewed from approximately 15 to 20 feet away.
4. Consider the angle at which the LCD television will be viewed. Some models of LCD televisions offer better viewing angles from the seating area than others. Viewing angle is the angle the television can be viewed from the side before picture degradation occurs.
