One formula (from Abt Appliance) for determining the maximum size screen for your room is:

Screen size, times 2, divided by 12 = optimal distance, in feet, for the screen size you're interested in.

We used it for a recent purchase and it worked for us. We wanted a 55" in a relatively small den and wanted to be sure it wasn't too big or the room.
