I'm a big fan of the blackout cloth. With the size I had to cover, it was really the only affordable option, other than paint, and the image looks great. I just can't imagine having to do it again. Too many staples and ladder moves :)

Just a thought...is there an option to make a bar directly behind the couch, slightly lower than a normal bar. You could then have seating in front of it, facing the screen to give you a bit more seating for the screen, and also allow people at the couch to place their drinks directly behind them, keeping you from needing a coffee table? (we put a piece of furniture behind ours for exactly that reason).
Maximus:
You could but it's not very social everyone staring at the screen. I hate it when all the chairs in a living room center around a TV not very good energy.
