Important: ANSI lumens then Contrast ratio and resolution last
The Golden Trapagon: This is a cuboid which has one short side longer than the other or a ratio of 1.272:1. What this shape does is push all the sound emanating from the systems in your direction, while reducing the reverb and echo. The Golden Trapagon is often used as the ideal shape for professional theater. Basically, the wall that holds your screen is wider and taller than the wall at the rear of the room. For the example below, you would sit near the 16-foot wall in the rear, and the floor would slope downward to the screen sitting on the 21-foot wall. The wall in the rear is only 10-feet tall, whereas the wall holding the screen is 13-feet tall. Your ideal screen size would be between 120-150 inches and this would accommodate two tiers of plush stadium seating.
The Golden Cuboid: This is where the room is around 3m high, 4.8m wide, and 8m long. Speakers placed within these dimensions will enable sound to be carried around and will be clearer. The Golden Ratio is 1.618 and this is what will help you. Begin with height as your smallest variable.

However, if you are in a room filled with ambient light, you should look for a projector with at least 4000 lumens. At a minimum, you will want a contrast ratio of 1000:1, 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. 150″ Screen (2.2m x 2.9m)
