I just got a Da-lite High Power screen to go along with my matte white screen (1.0 gain.)
Wow. What a difference. The HP is the new 2.4 (not 2.8) gain and I am very happy. The knock on this is the off axis which is very true. You do loose a lot of brightness 30 degrees off center. I have a sofa right on center so everyone will see a significant amount of gain in brightness. The three seats off center will not. For a crowd of three I will use the HP and more than three will put the matte white back up. The HP does give you that plasma feel with accurate colors like I like.
