The size and quality of screens may be blowing up, but the prices are coming down. Elite just announced two super screen choices, starting at a mere $782.

The CineTension2 line features retractable screens in both solid or acoustically transparent material. That opens up a lot of install options, including the ability to place speakers behind the screen. A variety of sizes, materials and aspect ratios are available.

Each model has internal infrared (IR) and radio frequency (RF) receivers accompanied by IR and RF remotes. The CineTension2 ranges from $789 to $1,589.

Another option is Elite’s HOME2, a series of non-tensioned electric retractable screens that boast a viewing angle of 160 degrees. The IR and RF receivers are also built-in on this line, with similar materials and other options available. The HOME2 is available now for $782 to $1,412, depending on size and features.

I got mine at umodz.com and have had it for 6 months and it’s been great.  I’m not sure what wrinkles or waves the previous poster is talking about.  I needed a bigger screen to replace my old one and Elite offers the best bang for the buck.

better check that your screen does not have wrinkles, waves and MISSING BLACK VINYL BACKING.  These guys will tell you anything to make the sale and then say “oops”.  The website is inaccurate and when you try to talk to anyone above first level in the company, they blow you off!!
