I'd hope because a 75" physically wouldn't fit. That's the only good reason I can think of.

Technically 8.5 ft is the farthest you can sit from a 65" and still get the full benefit of HD so your 8' room is about right.

Thanks for the tip about Monoprice. Cables ordered and received.

Another rather stupid question. I have an older DVD-R that I still like to use. Silly me, there is not an output for S-video Red/White/Yellow jacks. Is there an adaptor I can use that will plug in the S-video and upconvert it to a HDMI to plug into the television?
