How many projectors are you willing to stack?

hi brad.
we have a cp2230, the screen we have is big.
height: 22.96 ft width: 55.77 (for scope)
and for flat trow distance 59.055 ft.

i wonder if we can use Dolby 3D systems in this kind of screen.

by the way, how can i calculate a screen size for a new auditorium?
is there some kind of software?

thanks brad

I would think it would work fine if the screen gain were high enough. My personal opinion is that smaller screens are just better for 3-D. Since 3-D in reality is meant to be a window in when you go to a screen that large with a throw that short it is difficult to take in the image in it's entirety. I find that seeing a 3-D image in it's entirety is the most important aspect of today's 3-D way of filming.
