Indigo Motorised Tab-Tension Acoustic 16:9 Screen

16:9 Motorised Acoustic transparent screens allow speakers to be placed behind the projector screen. This prevents blocking the sound waves and improves the sound.

An acoustically transparent projector screen is best suited in a scenario when speakers need to be placed behind the projection screen. Then the sound waves do not interact with the screen, moving the projection surface. This causes distortions to the image or diminishing the quality of the audio by blocking the sound waves.

Acoustically transparent screens work by utilizing negative space in the surface. Then then allows for the sound waves to travel through without interference from the surface.

These screens are particularly useful when there is not enough space in the screening room to have the speakers placed on the side of the screen.

Many people also prefer the illusion of the character’s voices coming from “behind” the picture. This is opposed to the sides or beneath it as it emulates the characters talking.

Why acoustic transparent?

Make you speakers disappear just as a commercial cinema does. For the serious audiophile home theatre enthusiast, placement of speakers behind the screen reproduces the closest design aspect of the cinema experience with accurate projection of sound.  The only way the dialog will be heard coming directly from the actor’s mouth is to place the speakers directly behind an acoustic transparent screen. Finally hear all your favorite films just as the director intended.

Why tab-tension?

Tab Tensioned Motorised projector screens are for connoisseurs who demand perfection and professional video presentations. Yes they are considerably more expensive than a non-tab tensioned motorised screen but they are the only solution that comes close to a fixed frame screen. All pull down screens both manual and motorised will never lay perfectly flat due to the nature of the design, tab tensioning pulls the screen fabric in all four directions tight eliminating waves and wrinkles. The black masking provides further enhancement of masking the image thus improving the overall contrast for the most discerning.
