AUSTRALIAN OPAL® Home Theater Screen
Shop DIY Home Theater Projection Screens > choose No Contrast, Light Contrast, Medium Contrast or High Contrast.
You may use any of the four contrast levels with this surface and you can select the gain you prefer from .7 to 1.4 at the time you apply your screen (maximum gain for the HIGH CONTRAST option is 1.0).
AUSTRALIAN OPAL® has all the features and advantages described in WHY DIY Projection Screens including the technology that allows it to reflect a broader range of light spectrum than is known to be available on any other type of traditional projection screen surfaces. You can observe this yourself by using a UV light source like a black light. The surface will light up compared to other screen surfaces that will be totally black. They are incapable of reflecting the broader light spectrum. The opalescent particles have been engineered with a special cutting-edge coating. Look closely at the screen using a standard incandescent bulb (normal light bulbs and old style projection bulbs) and then using a halogen or metal halide light source as used by new projection technologies. You will see the difference. The sparkle of the screen surface will impress you and your friends.
DIY Theatre® uses non-interference pigment technology which solves the color shift issue found in traditional projection screen products. You will find this screen looks as good without projection as it does when you watch your favorite movie or sport. You will observe a luster that is the hallmark of a DIY Theatre® projection screen. Hint: Our most popular contrast level is medium and is most appropriate for the typical home theater environment. No extra charge for projector screen material contrast enhancement.
You do not have to decide on screen gain, as you will have control of this at the time you install your movie screen. The same is true of size and format. Each screen kit has enough solution to build a movie screen of at least 150” diagonal and in any format.
