Know before you buy
The 'Perf' stands for micro-perforated, meaning the screen is acoustically transparent. This allows you to place your front channel speakers directly behind the screen for a more immersive, theater-like sound experience without muffling the audio.
The 2.40:1 Cinemascope ratio is specifically designed for widescreen feature films. If you primarily watch standard 16:9 television broadcasts, you will see black bars on the left and right sides of the image.
Yes, the Cabaret is designed for versatile installation and includes hardware for both wall and ceiling mounting. Ensure your mounting surface is structurally sound enough to support the weight of the motorized housing.
A 0.9 gain is slightly below neutral, which helps improve black levels and contrast in rooms with some ambient light. It is an excellent choice for high-output projectors where you want to deepen the image's perceived contrast.
While most current projectors top out at 4K or 8K, the 16K+ rating ensures the screen material has no visible texture or pixel structure. This future-proofs your setup, ensuring the screen won't become the limiting factor as projector technology continues to advance.
The viewable area is 129.25 inches wide by 53.75 inches high. Keep in mind that the total housing width will be slightly larger than the screen surface, so you should measure your available wall or ceiling space to ensure the motorized case fits comfortably.
