Know before you buy
This screen performs best in rooms where you can control the ambient light. Because it has a neutral 1.0 gain, it relies on a darker environment to maintain deep contrast and color accuracy.
Yes, the Acumen V is designed specifically for below-ceiling mounting. Its housing is built to look clean and professional, making it a great fit for offices or classrooms where you want the screen to integrate seamlessly into the architecture.
No, the wide 180-degree viewing cone is a major benefit. It ensures that viewers sitting off to the side see the same color accuracy and brightness as those sitting directly in front of the screen.
The XT1000E surface is non-embossed and smooth, which prevents the screen texture from interfering with your image. This makes it an excellent choice for maintaining the clarity and detail of 1080p or 4K HD content.
