Thank you for this! If I am with in 1 or 2 inches of the minimum throw distance, would you recommend I step the screen size down one size or just go for it?
Frankly it is a matter of taste. Apparently you'll definitely want an ultra-short throw projector to get image from 1-2" distance. They are usually not very bright and pricy. With this said I would step down in screen size to get vivid image (usually ultra-short throw projectors can project image up to 130")
