Chromavue vs. severtson

528 Views 3 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  Nedtsc
hi guys!


Im new in the HT scene and just decided to get a sony vpl-hs51A.

But it seems to be more difficult to choose a proper screen than a pj ;)


My HT room isnt very well light controlled...2 windows are in there and walls/ceiling are white (maybe ill paint them darker later, but until now its impossible - female reasons... *g*)

My max. screen budget is about 2000 $

it should reject some ambient light but ill probably not watch it in full sun light... so curtains will be shut...


I read hours and hours a looooooooot of reviews (BIG THXxX TO ALL YA GUYS!) and had a look at even more screenshots/samples.


Now there are 2 main candidates left:


Severtson Ultra Contrast 1.5 gain; Sonys Chromavue 1.7 gain


unfortunately i couldnt find any comparisons of those 2 products!

Is anyone out there who has seen BOTH products (same time or not doesnt matter...) and can tell me its opinion which one i should prefer!? and if possible - WHY!?

any other suggestions are also very welcome! If necessary i also can post some pictures of my living/HT - room.


BIG THX for all replies!

How about DNP/Visage? I suggest requesting samples. Every room is different and what is acceptable to you could be different from others.
thx for the tip ned...well, i alrdy asked for several screen samples....dnp,screeninnovations,carada,firehawk,grayhawk,se vertson UC/HC,


but i couldnt find anyone getting a chromavue sample to me...so i wrote that post ;) and hope anyone will be able to help me in that decision... i just need a comparison of the chromavue with any of the screensamples i have...so i can do a ranking and get the best for me!


Big thxxx again for help

Forget about Sony your sample should have enough selection.
