Screen Research XMASK

[ronman]

I am currently working on a +900 sf theater. The screen size will be 183.5 for a 16:9.

Wondering... does anyone here have any experience with the XMask system? Pricey as , but it should be just about perfect for this theater. Before getting this beast I am looking for anyone who has some experience.

The theater is BIG/ It seats 24 in recliners with room for 12 more. Big place and just loads of fun (sic).

Hi Ron. Welcome to the Shack!

I'm not familiar with the XMask system. Is it a top/bottom masking system for 2:35 movies?

[ronman]

Xmask works for top/bottom and left/right. We will be using the acoustically transparent masks. It can be used to mask, 4:3 and 2:35. The projector will have an anamorphic lens. The theater will be used for sports and movies, so masking is necessary.

OK, I understand now. Have you read this review? He talks some about assembly/installation...

[ronman]

I have been away, but yes I have seen that review. We anticipate assembling the screen before the seating is in place, other wise we can't get it in the door. Thanks for the input.
