Project/Screen setup dilemma (help)

I sent the 2.3 tl's upstairs and set up the SRS at the proper distance from the left and right walls (3' as per the specs). The distance between the SRS is 6'3" and the distance to the seating is 11'. In the corners are bass traps and dual SVS subs.
The problem here is to get a 100" viewing screen for a projector. If I leave the SRS at the required distance, I can't get that size. If I move the SRS closer to the walls, I'll lose something? SDA effect perhaps?
How close to the walls can I place the SRS without penalty and what is the required distance between them to get close to the 100" mark?
Or should I forget the projector and go with a larger plasma? (currently it is 52")
This is how it looks at the moment:

The closer you get to an equilateral triangle, the better effect. Six feet between and eleven to seat is out of whack. Stretch them out and see how they sound. Moving closer to the wall may or may not affect it as much as the long distance to seating area. Sound treatments on the walls at the first reflection may help and allow you the spread you need for the screen.

Are you against having an Acoutically Transparent screen or are you planning a fixed frame screen? If you are ok with an AT screen that may be a good option for you.Shoot the jumper.....................BALLIN.............!!!!!

I intend to use the special paint and use the wall.
