Screen surface quality can also affect the reflectivity of light in your projected image. Screen
reflective properties are measured as “gain” rates, with 1.0 gain as the reflectivity of a white
board. Highly reflective screen surfaces (above 1.0 gain) create a brighter image, but the
brightness may not be uniform enough for a dedicated home theater environment and the
colors may appear to shift from different viewing angles.
In a home theater room with darkened surroundings and controlled lighting, a screen surface
with less than 1.0 gain is best. For rooms where you cannot control the light or will always
have ambient light, you may want to select a screen surface with more than 1.0 gain to
compensate for the additional brightness.
