What customers say
The Stewart Cabaret screen earns high praise for its reference grade visual performance.

Know before you buy
The StudioTek 100 surface features microscopic perforations that allow sound to pass through the screen with minimal attenuation. This design enables you to place your front speakers directly behind the screen for a more immersive, acoustically transparent home theater experience.
The 2.40:1 Cinemascope ratio is optimized for widescreen feature films. While you can project standard 16:9 television content, you will see black bars on the left and right sides of the image.
The StudioTek 100 is a unity gain, matte-white surface designed for light-controlled environments. Because it does not have light-rejecting properties, it performs best in a dedicated theater room where you can fully manage or eliminate ambient light.
Yes, the Cabaret is designed for versatile installation and supports both wall and ceiling mounting configurations. Ensure your mounting surface is structurally sound enough to support the weight of the motorized housing.
The automotive lacquer is a high-quality, premium finish that provides a sleek, sophisticated look. Like any high-gloss surface, it should be cleaned gently with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to maintain its luster and prevent fine scratches.
The 16K resolution support ensures the screen material is fine enough that it will not be the limiting factor in your visual chain. It essentially future-proofs your setup, ensuring the screen remains compatible with any high-resolution projector technology that may emerge in the coming years.
