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 10.7 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 17 x 2 (3400 x 400 px, 265 kg, 5.4 kW).
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Absen KLCOB 0.78 | 0.78 mm | 14 x 3 = 42 | 8.4 x 1 m | 10752 x 1296 | 189 kg / 417 lb | 3.7 kW, 18 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 | 2.5 mm | 17 x 2 = 34 | 8.5 x 1 m | 3400 x 400 | 265 kg / 585 lb | 5.4 kW, 26 A @ 208 V |
| Absen PL3.9 Plus V2 | 3.9 mm | 17 x 2 = 34 | 8.5 x 1 m | 2176 x 256 | 265 kg / 585 lb | 4.8 kW, 23 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, San Carlos Grotto holds about 67 theater seats, 27 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 19 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 3.7 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
