Elite Screens Debuts New AcousticPro 1080p Material At CES In Las Vegas

[The following is a release from Elite Screens]

January 16, 2009

Elite Screens, Inc. an innovative company that specializes in affordable high quality projector screens, today announced its AcousticPro™ 1080p acoustically transparent projection screen materials designed for high definition home theater and professional 1080p front projection systems. "Our AcousticPro 1080p material creates a brilliant projected image while being virtually acoustically invisible," said Dave Rodgers, Marketing Manager for Elite Screens. "It provides a great alternative when home theater aficionados want great sound from out-of-sight speakers." Elite's new acoustically transparent projection screen material has extremely small 0.25mm perforations that act as a sieve for sound waves to penetrate. It maximizes sound penetration while controlling the size and frequency of sonic passages. The passages are as small as possible to allow sound through while reducing moiré, a common visual artifact caused by digital projection pixels overlapping with the holes on a perforated screen. Elite's AcouticPro 1080p material has a 1.0 gain matte woven square mesh that damps only 2.0 dB at 20 KHz for pure, clean and outstanding sound quality. The side-weave mesh pattern has only an eight percent light loss, and its coated fabric provides true color reproduction to ensure both audio and video quality with each 1080 movie or presentation. Elite's AcousticPro1080p woven material is available in sizes between 72 inches to 180 inches and has a viewing angle of 160° so all audience members see a clear, bright projected image. Rodgers added, "Each new material matches the other's audio performance while providing our customers with a choice of two distinct styles of projection surface for their business or home theater needs." Pricing, Availability, Warranty Elite Screens' AcousticPro1080p material is available now, made for its EZ-Frame, Elite PrimeVision, VMAX2, Home2, Home3, CineTension2 and CineTension3 retractable projection screens with prices starting at $806. These screens come with Elite's minimum two-year manufacturer's warranty, which is twice the industry standard.
