Shape approximate: the venue publishes area only, so this room is drawn as a square of equal area.
LED wall that fits
Under a 3.1 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 2 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 49.1 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 78 x 2 (15600 x 400 px, 1,217 kg, 25 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 65 x 3 = 195 | 39 x 1 m | 49920 x 1296 | 878 kg / 1,935 lb | 17.3 kW, 83 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 78 x 2 = 156 | 39 x 1 m | 15600 x 400 | 1,217 kg / 2,683 lb | 25 kW, 120 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 78 x 2 = 156 | 39 x 1 m | 9984 x 256 | 1,217 kg / 2,683 lb | 21.8 kW, 105 A @ 208 V |
Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.
Seating estimate
After a 12 x 7 m stage, Melbourne Room holds about 5,170 theater seats, 2,115 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 1,454 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 42.1 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
