I am very interested in doing a spandex screen in my home theater. I am interested in it for an AT screen, but want to make sure I will have enough gain, contrast, and brightness. my room is 18x12x7'7". It is completely light controlled dedicated basement theater room. The room is pre-wired for up to 7.4 sound and will have a seating distance of around 13-15 feet depending on how I end up doing my seating. I am neither a video or audiophile, but would like to have the best set up possible. I have read a lot of the posts about spandex and using white over silver or vice versa with moleskin or milliskin combinations. Here are some screen shots of my projector calculations and wanted some opinions on screen size, projector, throw distance, etc. I do not care about 3D at all. If 3D is possible great, but I care about deep blacks and vibrant colors on an amazing 2.40:1 2D Bluray. I am leaning towards the JVC RS45 for my projector but that isn't set in stone. Need zoom memory for CIH screen and the JVC is known for its excellent black levels.
Worst case I fork over hundreds of extra dollars on a Seymour screen or something.
2.35:1 calculations with the JVC RS45 for my set up
16:9 calculations with the JVC RS45 for my set up
