RE: OT : Home Cinrema Projection Screen

["Phil Harris" <phillip.harris1@xxxxxxx>]

If you're mounting the speakers behind the screen then you'll need a
perforated screen. The temptation here is to cut corners and go find a
company that supplies proper cine screens (they're usually perforated
and the material is much cheaper).

*DON'T*

The holes in proper cine screens are comparitively large (a couple of
mm) and well spaced ... The holes in perforated Home Theatre screens are
a fraction of a mm in diameter and are much more closely spaced so that
you don't see them from the closer viewing distance.

For something like a perforated fixed Stewart or Vutec screen you'll be
looking at a couple of grand - chances of finding one secondhand are
slim. Drop me a line directly and we can go into what you want and I'll
try to help out as much as I can.
