I think about a 10 degree cp slope is good.

Front edge of CP - 39"
Back edge of CP - 40-1/2"
The CP itself(playable surface) is about 7" front edge to back edge

Bottom viewable line of the monitor(19" TV) is 43"
If I set the monitor on a level table, and tipped the top back about 2", that's how much it's slanted


WOrks pretty good for me, at 6'3, my 5'8 wife, and even a buddy thats like 6'5

Thanks for the info guys.  I know I could do some legwork on this and look up cp heights in your construction documents, but it is good to hear how happy you are with your heights and angles.
