Home Cinema Screens - what are the trends?
Home Cinema Screens - what are the trends?
With growing interest in high definition and larger displays, the home cinema projector market is hotting up. But there is no point in having a great projector if the screen and environment lets it down, and not everyone has the luxury of a spare room that can be dedicated to a home theatre. In order to make the most of the projector and the room it finds itself in, an ordinary screen will often not do, and how it looks aesthetically can be as important as how it performs technically.
To find out how the custom install industry is responding to these challenges, Hidden Wires asked a number of manufacturers, suppliers and installers what the trends are in terms of projection screens, and what recent innovations in the residential market they think are important. Here are their replies.
