Know before you buy
A 1.1 gain indicates that the screen reflects light back at the same intensity as a standard matte white surface. It is a neutral gain, meaning it provides a bright, balanced image without hotspots or significant color shifts, making it ideal for controlled lighting environments.
The tensioning system pulls the fabric taut across the frame to prevent curling or waves from developing over time. This ensures the projection surface remains perfectly flat, which is essential for maintaining image geometry and sharpness.
The 16:10 aspect ratio is primarily designed for data and business presentations, offering a slightly taller image than the 16:9 format used for most movies. While you can certainly watch films on it, you will likely see black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.
Yes, because this is a hardwired electric unit, it requires professional installation to ensure it is securely mounted and correctly connected to your electrical system. You should consult the included installation manual or a certified technician to handle the wiring and structural mounting.
HD Progressive surfaces are engineered to provide a smooth, uniform texture that eliminates pixelation and moiré patterns. This makes the screen particularly well-suited for high-resolution projectors where image clarity and detail are the top priorities.
