FAQ

How far should I sit from a 77 inch TV?

For a cinematic, immersive picture sit about 7.7 ft (2.35 m) away — the THX 40° angle. For a more relaxed, mixed-use setup go to about 10.3 ft (SMPTE 30°). With 4K you can sit as close as 6.4 ft without seeing pixels.

What size room do I need for a 77" TV?

Plan for a seating distance of roughly 7.7–10.3 ft. The screen itself is about 67.1" (170 cm) wide, so leave a little wall margin on each side.

Is a 77 inch TV too big?

Not if your seats are at least 7.7 ft away. Larger 4K TVs are easy to enjoy up close — most people end up wishing they bought bigger.
