Elite Screens Lunette acoustically transparent curved screen
The Lunette 2.35:1 screen from Elite Screens offers a gain of 1.0 and its acoustically engineered screen material enables installers to mount speakers behind the screen to create a fully built-in theater appearance in a home environment.
Elite Screens offers its new Lunette curved, acoustically transparent screen in a choice of sizes to accommodate a variety of home theater installations.
A few years ago when CinemaScope aspect ratio screens and projection products first hit the residential market they were ultra expensive. Helping to bring those prices down in the screen category is the Cerritos, Calif.-based manufacturer Elite Screens, Inc., which recently rolled out its latest screen product: The Lunette A1080P2.
Elite says this screen provides electronics professionals with an affordable acoustically transparent curved screen that's formatted in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The screen employs the company's AcousticPro A1080P2 screen material that offers a 1.0 gain surface and .25mm perforations in an angular mesh-weave to support the placement of speakers behind the screen. Elite says the screen tested at a dampening range of just .91 to 3.00 max dB at 20kHz, and it says the material is engineered to eliminate moire artifacts that are produced by some perforated materials.
The company also points out that because the screen's curved surface the product minimizes the pin cushion effect that some anamorphic systems experience when utilizing external lenses.
