Fixed frame projection screen with Da-Mat surface, 78" x 139" dimensions, and Pro-Trim finish
The Da-Lite 87178V is a Cinema Contour® fixed frame projection screen designed for high-performance environments requiring a perfectly flat viewing surface. This 78" x 139" (159" diagonal) screen is built with a 45-degree angle-cut aluminum frame that provides a substantial, high-contrast visual boundary. It features a Pro-Trim finish, which is a standard black finish designed to absorb ambient light surrounding the viewing area to improve perceived contrast. The screen surface is a Da-Mat material, which is mounted onto the back of the frame, often utilizing a masking or cropping border to ensure edge-to-edge uniformity. This specific configuration is designed for front projection applications in 16:9 HDTV formats, maximizing the potential of modern 4K and Ultra HD projectors. This TAA compliant model features a standard black backing to retain projected brightness and provides a consistent, high-resolution viewing area for cinema enthusiasts and professional installers alike.
