Plan view

LED wall that fits

Under a 6.9 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 10 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 33.7 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 53 x 10 (10600 x 2000 px, 4,134 kg, 84.8 kW).

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, Salon BC holds about 1,595 theater seats, 652 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 448 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 26.7 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
