Easy enough to assemble. Thin border looks great! Acoustic screen?
Long story short - I accidentally bought Elite Screens' "Cinegray" screen, thinking I'd bought a "regular" white screen. A 15% restocking fee later (>$100) and then I purchased this screen. It sat boxed in my basement for over a year while we remodeled & delayed the theater, but finally I recently ha
d a chance to get around to it. AUHD? I didn't even know what it meant when I looked at the box. Acoustic Ultra High Def? Oh no. I bought the wrong one again?! Kind of. I did not intend to buy an Acoustic screen. I simply wanted a 120" screen with small bezels. I used to own the more popular screen of the same size (120") and the giant bezels really never sat well with me. Anyway, learning about the acoustic screen I owned, I changed some of my design ideas and decided to put the speakers behind the screen. In the end, I'm completely satisfied with this happy accident. The screen... Assembly took me about 90 minutes by myself. The instructions were clear, and I never had to redo a step from overlooking something. The most tedious part is installing some hooks that hold a piece of black fabric in place - I never quite understood the purpose of the black fabric (installed behind the projector screen, attached to the back of the bezel), but it's in there. I did rip a piece of the velcro but that simply taught me to be more careful along the way. In the end, it came out almost flawless. I absolutely love it. High priced but it looks fantastic and the hidden front speakers are a really neat party trick. I would buy this again.

The screen was relatively easy to set up, but one side has some small wrinkles. Can’t see them with the projector on, just catches my eye when it’s off.

The set up was not very difficult, the picture quality is good. Good value for money.

Good Screen with one caveat.
My review is only for the 120" screen, this was my first screen and I'm not that well equipped to talk about the picture quality and other details and plenty of reviews are available online, I would like to just talk about one caveat with the screen as this is an acoustically transparent screen and i
ts applies to only screen sizes 120" and below. This screen comes with only one central support bar unlike the screen sizes above this and if you are planning to setup center channel behind the screen it may come in the way, it is almost half an inch thick rod and in my setup it was impacting the sound quality and I had to buy another support bar at my expense to move the center support bar out of the way to achieve somewhat similar setup as the bigger size screen. Also, it took a while to get a response from Elite screen support team but it was easy process once you get somebody to talk to. I'm enjoying my viewing time so far but I would recommend to access your setup plan if are considering buying the screen. The Elite screen website has lot of resources and I should have researched online before ordering the screen.

The screen is "ok", I had it professionally installed and it still took 2 people who do this all day a couple hours, in addition, they had to readjust multiple times to try and get any wrinkles out of the screen and even with redoing it multiple times there are a few areas on the screen that are wrin
kled but it isn't a deal breaker, for the price it's a solid screen and the picture quality is good, I have the triple laser Samsung and the images are clear overall.

Poor Quality Materiel - You get what you pay for.
I had to go with a AUHD screen since my speakers are in the front wall. I am bit disappointed with the quality of this product. The manual was not very helpful. Some parts did not fit (the middle bar and fiber glass rods), holes did not match and missing screw (1 screw). Also, beware of the corners w
hile pulling the fabric to attach to the velcro. I ripped mine in two places where fabric meets the seem of the velcro. Its seems Elite screens tried to make this model easier to install but totally missed testing and quality control. Note, there is a good amount pulling and stretching of the screen material required to get a tight fit. The middle bar that suppose to fit between the top and bottom bar does to fit. It's not even the same size. There are no holes for the screw to go in the top and bottom bar to attach the middle bar. Also, the fiber glass sticks suppose to go from one corner to other as per the manual, does not even fit in the corner or any holes in the corner to attach. Besides all that, there are some pros about this product. Pros - Image quality in room light condition - This is a white screen. In the room light condition (all lights on in the room) the image quality is washed out but acceptable. Image quality in ambient light condition - If I deem the lights to half, the quality improves a lot. Image quality in dark room is as expected. AUHD (Audion transparent materiel) - No issue there. Sounds great. Cons - Missing and miss-configured product. Poor quality materiel. Poor workmanship. Elite should spend good amount of time to write dummy proof installation manuals, video's Testing and Quality control would be a great idea. Final Opinion - You get what you pay for. I will not buy again from Elite in future.

Great looking screen that was easy to put together
Projector screen looks great. Easy to put the frame together and get the screen on. Only issue I had was mainly with the little hooks that go onto the frame that the black mesh for the back hooks onto. Didn't get enough of them for all the red marks and they never wanted to stay on and would get stuc
k in the track. Also wasn't a big fan of how the edging looked so I left it off and just used the extra inch of screen.

The picture is great! But.....
The screen is pretty nice I guess for the cost. But the assembly was a bit difficult. These little clips are supposed to hold the back cover on and they do not work at all. I have heard they replaced them with springs but certainly not on my model. I would not buy one of these screens again as the ma
terials we cheap and of low quality .I am sure not many people send them back because of all the effort to put it together and hang it. Sadly my next screen will be more $$ since it won't be an Elite screens.

Great Acoustic Screen at a Great Price
I bought this screen so that I could place my in-wall speakers behind it in order to maximize my wall space and buy a larger screen. This screen works like a champ! It has a thin frame that is practically invisible which adds to its appearance.

Took a couple of hours but not too challenging. Looks great and sounds amazing. I can’t tell if there is any loss of sound quality because this works that well. Most people don’t realize they can’t see the speakers until I tell them.

This a great product and the quality of the image is exceptional. Instalation was fairly easy my only critique would be a improvement on the images on the instruction manual. This is great product

Solid screen. Takes time to assemble and do it correctly. One tiny wrinkle will just not go away. Love the screen though.

The frame was very easy to install
screen does not wrap around frame as it should. The frame was very easy to install. After that...complete disaster. Contacted customer support for any tips to assemble and they just read off owner's manual. The features and size of this screen make the price really attractive. However, save yur money
and look elsewhere.
