Advice needed - Budget Screen needed
Hi All,
I bought a house and there was a screen there. I'm including a photo and the specs. I would like to get something the same but really not spending 2K on a screen.

Here is the specs
133 diagonal screen 2.35:1 aspect ratio, 1.3 Gain
Here is what it looks like... I do not wish to spend a lot on a screen and invest it into a great projector. However, the room looks great with the current screen there and it has the specs i mentioned.

The old owner is taking the screen with him.

Thank you in advance for your help

What is your budget ?

First off, that's a 2:35 [actually 2:39] screen. You should probably replace it with a 16:9 as it will be more compatible for what will likely be the majority of your content.

Second, in a dedicated room like that you don't need screen gain and it will actually degrade overall picture quality. Screen gain is a trade off to compensate for rooms where ambient light cannot be eliminated.

My screen is about the same overall size and I paid considerably less.
