Screen Excellence's Enlightor projection screen is 4k ready and acoustically transparent

Screen Excellence theater
Okay, fancy pants with your dedicated front projection setup -- where do you put your L/C/R speakers after your whole front wall of your private screening room is taken up by a screen? With most speakers, pushing the left and right channels to the corners of the room won't do the sound quality any favors, and that's doubly true for any speakers located behind the screen (where you also might want to put your center channel). Well, Screen Excellence's Enlightor 4k screen material is just for you. The screen material is designed to handle resolutions up to 4096x2160 without nasty moire patterns showing up, and it also exhibits a uniform audio response so you can put your speakers right behind it without screwing up the sound.

SI Screens ships Reference Motorized projector screen


Shortly after hearing that SI Screens was shipping its flamboyant Black Diamond projector screen comes word that its Reference Motorized model isn't too far behind. The company sounds totally jazzed to be showcasing said unit at CEDIA 2008, but folks who'd rather not wait for the expo demo can apparently get one on order right now. Each unit sports a curved décor case, ultra quiet motor and a Super Flat rigid horizontal screen tensioning system. Prospective buyers can snag one in sizes ranging from 80- to 160-inches diagonal, with screen format options including 2.35:1, 16:9, and 4:3. Now, if only these things weren't so incredibly pricey...

SI Screens ships Black Diamond projector screen


Are you serious about your projector? No, we mean serious. If so, SI Screens is asking that you place your money where your mouth is with the shipping announcement of its Black Diamond products. Said screens promise the blackest blacks and the whitest whites, though there's no details on whether it does chores when not entertaining guests. Still, for $2,599 (100-inch), it better.

DNP's Supernova Epic Screen now shipping


DNP -- the very same folks that developed the daylight-friendly Supernova Flex Screen -- is all set to begin shipping out its newfangled Supernova Epic Screen. Clearly aimed at high-end home theater enthusiasts, this particular projection screen promises to provide "widescreen reproduction of movies in all aspect ratios displaying superior high-contrast images in 100-percent neutral color." Additionally, the unit's motorized masking system is "fully adjustable from closed to 2.40:1 settings," and it even combats retro-illumination so you don't have to. The Supernova Epic is available in standard sizes up to 156-inches (though custom orders are welcome), and while pricing has yet to be divulged, we're taking that as a sign of unaffordability.
