What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Elite Saker screen for its exceptional image quality, directly attributable to the effective tab tensioning system. This feature ensures superior flatness, eliminating waves and wrinkles common in standard motorized screens, resulting in distortion free high definition viewing. The screen material supports vibrant colors and deep contrast. While the motor proves reliable, some users mention the installation requires significant effort and the operational noise is slightly louder than expected for a premium product. Despite minor installation and noise considerations, the consensus is that the outstanding performance and build quality make this a worthwhile investment for serious projection enthusiasts demanding perfect screen uniformity.
Know before you buy
The tab-tension system uses side cables to pull the screen material taut, preventing the curling or rippling often found in standard motorized screens. This ensures a perfectly flat surface, which is essential for maintaining image geometry and sharpness.
Yes, the Saker series is designed for versatility and includes hardware for both wall and ceiling installations. The mounting brackets allow you to choose the setup that best fits your room layout.
The 12V trigger allows the screen to lower and retract automatically when you turn your projector on or off. If your projector has a 12V output port, you can connect it to the screen using the included cable for a seamless, hands-free experience.
Yes, the MaxWhite Fiberglass material features a 180° viewing angle, meaning the image remains consistent and bright even for viewers sitting far to the side of the screen. It is an excellent choice for larger rooms or wider seating arrangements.
No, this screen is specifically designed for standard-throw projectors. Because the surface is not tensioned for the extreme angles of ultra-short-throw projectors, you may see image distortion if used with those models.
The 4:3 aspect ratio is a traditional 'square' format often used for business presentations or retro gaming. If you are primarily watching modern widescreen movies or TV shows, keep in mind that you will see black bars at the top and bottom of the image.
