What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Stewart Luxus screen for its unparalleled image fidelity and premium quality. The screen material is consistently noted for flawless color neutrality and exceptional uniformity, maximizing projector performance with 4K and HDR content. The Cinemascope aspect ratio enhances immersion by eliminating black bars for widescreen films. Mechanically, the motor system operates smoothly and quietly, while the tab-tensioning ensures a perfectly flat viewing surface over time. While the initial investment is significant, buyers agree the transformative, uncompromising viewing experience justifies the premium cost, positioning this screen as a definitive long-term asset for dedicated home theaters.
Know before you buy
A 1.0 gain means the screen reflects light equally in all directions, providing a neutral, color-accurate image. It is the industry standard for controlled lighting environments where you want the most faithful reproduction of the projector's original signal.
Yes, the included Intelligent Motor Control (IMC) 100 system is highly versatile. It supports IR, Serial, RF, IP, trigger, and dry contact connections, allowing it to communicate with almost any modern home automation controller.
The sliding bracket allows you to adjust the screen's horizontal position after the mounts are already secured to the ceiling. This makes it much easier to perfectly center the screen with your projector lens without having to re-drill holes.
Not at all. The unit features a removable bonnet that provides quick access to the motor and internal components, simplifying any necessary adjustments or maintenance without requiring you to take the entire case down.
The 2.35:1 Cinemascope ratio is specifically designed for widescreen feature films. While you can project standard 16:9 content onto it, you will see empty space on the left and right sides of the image.
The Luxus series features a refined, compact case design that is 0.75 inches smaller than previous models. While the total width is 182 inches, ensure you have enough ceiling depth to accommodate the housing and the necessary clearance for the motorized deployment.
