3. Installation Guide lines
Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit int he case ofrear projection systems) given a determined amount
of light projected toward them. The ‘GAIN’ of a screen is the term used. Front and rear screens are both rated in terms of gain.
The gain of screens range from a white matte screen with a gain of 1 (x1) to a brushed aluminized screen with a gain of 10 (x10)
ormore. Thechoice between higher and lower gain screens is largely a matter of personal preference and another consideration
calledthe Viewing angle. Inconsidering the type of screen to choose, determine where the viewers will be located and go for the
highestgain screen possible. Ahigh gain screen will provide a brighter picture but reduce the viewing angle. For more information
about screens, contact your local screen supplier.
