Our take on the Elite Screens DarkStar Special Edition ALR/CLR Fixed Frame Projector Screen, 106" (16:9)

The Elite Screens DarkStar Special Edition is a 106-inch 16:9 fixed-frame projector screen built around DarkStar9 ambient-light-rejecting material. Its micro-structural filters absorb most light coming from above and below, so the image stays bright in rooms with lamps or windows rather than only in a dark theater. Gain is 0.9 with a 180-degree viewing angle, and it is rated for 4K/8K HDR and ISF calibration. It suits living rooms and multipurpose spaces where light control is imperfect; against white or gray matte screens it trades some peak brightness for far better contrast under ambient light, and against ultra-short-throw screens it needs a standard-throw projector.

About the Elite Screens DarkStar Special Edition ALR/CLR Fixed Frame Projector Screen, 106" (16:9)

The DarkStar Special Edition is a fixed frame projector screen with DarkStar 9 ALR/CLR material.

Questions and answers

Does this screen work in a room with windows?
Yes. The DarkStar9 material is designed to reject ambient light from above and below, so it holds contrast in rooms with lamps or daylight better than a white matte screen.
Can I use it with an ultra-short-throw projector?
No. It is built for standard-throw projectors, and the ALR structure is not intended for the steep angle of an ultra-short-throw lens.
How big is the screen?
The viewable area is 106 inches diagonal in a 16:9 ratio, on a 2.3-inch aluminum frame.
Does it support 4K and HDR?
Yes. It is rated for 4K and 8K Ultra HD and HDR, and it is ISF certified for color and dynamic range.
What is in the box?
The DarkStar Special Edition fixed-frame screen and sliding wall mounts. The frame comes split for assembly.
Will the image be dimmer than on a white screen?
Slightly. Gain is 0.9, so peak brightness is lower than a white screen, but contrast in lit rooms is much better.
