Last week I posted my home theater on reddit and got a lot of feedback. Some people suggested painting my ceiling black or putting black panels up on my white ceiling and I totally understand the benefit, but unfortunately it's not an option. Here is a link to pictures of my theater. http://imgur.com/a/enIf0


Now currently I have a crappy 92" elite screen manual roll down that has a texture to it I don't like and it has always had minor waves in it. I am looking to go with a fixed screen for a number of reasons including a better picture, nicer and more professional looking ascetically, and finally never have to worry about waves again.

I am using a Acer H6510BD DLP 3-D projector (have never used the 3-d, so thats not a big factor)

Which of these two screens would be best for my environment.
Standard White Screen http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DGVHZSA $189.99
Grey Screen http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I4WSAL2 $219.99

I am personally leaning toward the grey one, but please free to make other suggestions assuming it is under $300.


The reason I'm mainly thinking about grey is due to the light reflecting badly off the white ceiling even in absolute darkness, and this is our main tv area, so we like a few lights on for just normal tv watching and really only have complete darkness in movie situations.

What do you guys think. I wish I had somewhere in Northwest Indiana or South-Side of Chicago I could see a grey screen in action.
