Know before you buy
CLR technology uses a specialized optical surface designed to absorb light coming from above while reflecting light directly from your projector toward your eyes. This prevents overhead room lighting from washing out the image, allowing for high contrast even in bright environments.
This screen is specifically engineered for ultra-short throw (UST) projectors. Because of the way the material reflects light, it will not perform correctly with standard long-throw projectors.
The Aeon series uses a tension-based frame system that requires assembly. While it is straightforward, it is best to have two people to ensure the material is stretched evenly across the frame for a perfectly flat, wrinkle-free surface.
The grey surface enhances black levels and color depth, which are often lost on standard white screens when ambient light is present. It provides a more cinematic, punchy image by preventing the light from the projector from bouncing back and diluting the dark areas of your content.
The Aeon CLR features a 'Borderless' design, meaning the material wraps around the frame to create a sleek, flat-panel TV appearance. This makes it a great aesthetic choice for modern living rooms where you want a clean, minimalist look.
Yes, it is designed specifically for rooms with ambient light, such as those with windows or overhead lighting. However, for the best performance, you should still avoid direct sunlight hitting the screen surface, as no screen can completely negate direct, high-intensity light sources.
