Da-Lite 95571V Cinema Contour 100" 16:9 Fixed Frame Screens (HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast)

Product Overview

The Da-Lite Cinema Contour is a fixed frame projection screen for commercial AV installations requiring a substantial black border frame that enhances contrast and provides a visual reference for the projected image. Available in HDTV 16:9 format from 100" to 220" diagonal, it accommodates HD Progressive and specialty surfaces optimized for 4K and Ultra HD projection in boardrooms, conference rooms, and dedicated screening environments. The wider frame design distinguishes it from minimalist flat-panel-style screens, making it appropriate when a traditional cinema-influenced aesthetic is specified.

Product Description

The Da-Lite Cinema Contour 100" 16:9 fixed frame screen features a wider, cinema-style black frame that frames the image and enhances perceived contrast by providing a dark visual boundary around the projected content — a specification standard in commercial screening rooms, boardrooms, and executive conference spaces. The HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface (Gray-base gain 1.1 surface that improves perceived black levels and contrast ratio when used with DLP and LCD projectors, recommended for environments with moderate ambient light.) is engineered for compatibility with 1080p, 4K, and Ultra HD projection signals, delivering accurate color reproduction and uniform gain across the full viewing area. The seamless surface construction eliminates center-seam artifacts on any model, maintaining image continuity across the entire viewing surface. A standard black backing prevents light transmission through the screen material, preserving image brightness and contrast on front projection applications. The substantial aluminum frame accepts the screen material under uniform tension, preventing surface waves or distortion over time. The Cinema Contour can be installed flush against a wall surface or set into a wall opening for a recessed appearance, depending on available wall depth and installation requirements. Frame finish options are available; contact Creation Networks for custom specifications. Da-Lite provides a 5-year limited warranty on this product. For a minimal-profile alternative, see the UTB Contour series at creationnetworks.net, which offers the smallest bezel of any fixed frame screen on the market. The FullVision series is also available for 1:1 or 4:3 aspect ratio installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Cinema Contour differ from the UTB Contour?

A: The Cinema Contour features a wider, more substantial black frame that provides visual contrast reference around the image. The UTB Contour has the smallest frame profile of any fixed frame screen on the market and is designed to mimic the appearance of a large flat-panel display. Both are available at creationnetworks.net.

Q: Is this screen compatible with 4K and UHD projectors?

A: Yes. All HD Progressive surfaces are engineered for 1080p, 4K, and Ultra HD projection. The seamless surface construction maintains image accuracy across the full viewing area.

Q: Can the Cinema Contour be installed in a wall opening?

A: Yes. The Cinema Contour can be mounted on a wall surface or set into a wall opening for a partially or fully recessed installation, depending on wall depth and frame clearance.

Q: What projector types are compatible with the HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface?

A: The HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface uses a gray base to improve black levels and contrast ratio. It is particularly well-suited for DLP and LCD projectors in environments with moderate ambient light. Improves perceived image depth and shadow detail compared to standard white surfaces.
