Da-Lite DL15672LS 104" Tensioned Advantage with SightLine Ultra-Wide Projection Screen (HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast)

Product Overview

The Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage with SightLine 104" 21:9 Ultra-Wide Projection Screen (DL15672LS) with HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast surface is a ceiling recessed 21:9 ultra-wide projection screen with a gray-base surface engineered for improved black levels and contrast ratio in DLP and LCD projector installations with moderate ambient light. This Da-Lite SightLine floating screen commercial AV product delivers 1.1 gain with a gray base that absorbs ambient light to improve perceived contrast in executive boardrooms and conference rooms at the 104" diagonal. The HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast is the preferred surface specification for facilities pairing DLP or LCD laser projectors with the 21:9 video conferencing projection screen format where image contrast is a priority over maximum brightness.

Product Description

The Da-Lite Tensioned Advantage with SightLine is a ceiling-recessed electric projection screen engineered for commercial AV installations. At 104" diagonal in 21:9 ultra-wide format (approximately 47" H x 89" W viewing surface), this model suits executive boardrooms and conference spaces where image contrast is a priority. The SightLine cable-drop system creates a floating screen appearance with 70"/180cm variable positioning. The two-stage installation installs the case during rough-in and the surface assembly during finishing. The HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast gray-base surface improves black levels and contrast ratio for DLP and LCD projectors in moderate ambient light. TruGuide electric tensioning, Smooth Roll Technology, LVC, and UL 2043 Plenum Rated case are standard. This Da-Lite commercial projection screen installation carries a 5-year limited warranty.

Key Features

• SightLine Cable-Drop System — Replaces black drop fabric with 3–4 thin cables, creating a floating screen appearance and allowing variable vertical positioning up to 70" from ceiling to screen top edge.
• 21:9 Ultra-Wide Format — Designed for hybrid video conferencing solutions displaying in-room and remote participants simultaneously on a single surface.
• Two-Stage Installation — Case installs during rough-in construction; surface assembly during finishing stage, reducing coordination requirements between trades.
• TruGuide Electric Tensioning System — Maintains uniform surface tension across the full viewing area to eliminate wrinkles and surface distortion.
• Smooth Roll Technology — Prevents surface deformation during retraction cycles, maintaining flat viewing surface over the product’s service life.
• Standard Low Voltage Control (LVC) — Integrates with third-party AV control systems via dry contact relay without requiring high-voltage switching at the control point.
• UL Plenum Rated Case — Approved for installation in plenum air spaces per UL 2043, meeting commercial building code requirements in most jurisdictions.
• Ceiling Trim-in-Place Design — White powder-coated aluminum case with closure door conceals the ceiling opening; no additional trim work required after screen installation.
• HD Progressive 1.1 Contrast Gray-Base Surface — 1.1 gain gray surface improves black levels and contrast ratio for DLP/LCD projectors in moderate ambient light environments at 104" diagonal.
• Seamless Viewing Surface — No center seam; maintains visual continuity across the full 104" ultra-wide viewing area.

Typical Applications

• Executive boardrooms requiring high-contrast imaging with DLP or LCD laser projectors
• Premium presentation spaces and executive screening rooms
• Medium conference rooms with moderate ambient light
• Corporate training rooms with ceiling-recessed AV infrastructure
• Government conference spaces with architectural ceiling requirements
