So, make sure to darken the room during the day. A minimum distance of 8 feet for a 50-inch TV and 10 feet for 63 inches and above between the chair and the 3D TV should be the perfect distance to be maintained.

If you really want to enjoy the effect of the 3D audio, you need to use a 3D-compatible home theatre receiver that passes 3D signals from the blue ray disc and on to the 3D TV.
