Is a 86" TV right for your room?
Used by some LCD ranges in place of 85 inches; the difference is barely visible. At 11 ft 8 in or less from the sofa it suits large living rooms and open-plan spaces. Its screen is 7.2× the area of a 32-inch TV.
Allow at least 76.5" of wall or cabinet width. With the screen centre at a seated eye height of about 42", the top edge sits near 63" from the floor.
