Best throw distance for projector?

[ryanw135]

What would the best throw distance be for my projector? The screen is 105"x59", the room is 17 feet long, and the projector is an Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 8350. The projector will be mounted on the ceiling.

Nice projector! Drooled over one before I decided it was too expensive ($1400 at the time) and settled on the Optoma HD20. According to Projector Central, it looks the the optimal throw distance is between 13' and 17'. At 16', the display image should almost completely fill your screen.

Alright. Looks like that will work well for the room. Thanks for the help!
