WHICH SCREEN WITH A 4k UST PROJECTOR?
Its a very good idea to also invest in the right screen to maximise the image capabilities of the projector.
Although you can project directly onto any wall, you may soon find yourself wondering why the image looks imperfect or speckly from the paint. These things tend to be more noticeable in glorious 4k and when the projector is up against the wall shining a powerful light source onto the paint.
UST projector screens also need to be tensioned to avoid a distorted image and ideally with 4k fabric.
You can choose from floor rising, fixed frame or wall / ceiling mounted as well as ALR (ambient light rejection) and of course these higher end screens like the Vividstorm range are all electric and come with a free one-touch trigger system so everything turns on at once.
Here are some options perfect for a 4K UST Projector setup with an ALR Floor Rising / Fixed Frame screen!
