Premium home cinema projectors

Above three and a half thousand pounds the questions change. Brightness stops being the constraint and native contrast becomes the thing you watch; a scope screen asks whether the projector can do it anamorphically or has to letterbox and lose a third of its light; an acoustically transparent screen takes gain back down to 0.8 and the whole brightness sum again. So this page asks about the screen first and the projector second. Tell us the size, the aspect, the gain and how far back you sit, and every row is checked against that screen rather than against a bracket.

Fill in what you know. We work out only what your answers support.

We have not yet confirmed this projector's contrast or HDR tone mapping against the maker's own documents, so it cannot be placed among the rows that have. It sits last until we have.
