Which Projector Screen Do You Need
Once you have decided on the type of projector screen and taken the gain factor into consideration, you need to decide on what material your screen is made from.
High Contrast Grey
This material is a smooth grey vinyl surface that is recommended for high output DLP and LCD projector where there needs to be high-resolution and enhanced blacks. These screens typically have a low gain and work best in low ambient light. The vinyl fabric is very flexible so they can be folded or rolled up without any damage. This is the most recommended for home theater set ups.
High Contrast Matte White
This type of screen works best with low to moderate DLP and LCD projectors in a room where the ambient light source can be moderately controlled. It has a diffuse white reflective surface over a grey base material so it can heighten the black levels without sacrificing the white. Recommended for video images without too many high-resolution graphics.
High Performance
This is the most expensive type of screen as it delivers a precise resolution with higher contrast and vivid color palette while handling ambient light. Created from a tear-proof fiberglass base textile that does not reflect ambient light. Recommended in rooms where the lighting can’t be controlled.
