The area is a basement so low light and glare is not an issue.

Epsons are great projectors with an excellent warranty. It is the most common one I install.

Excellent advice above. I run a 110" screen on about 150" viewing distance (eyeball to screen). I would be comfortable running 120" screen at the same viewing distance. Most people I demo my system to are 'stunned' with the image quality.
