Da-Lite Cinema Contour 130" Projection Screen

The Da-Lite Cinema Contour 130" Projection Screen blends cinematic design with modern projection technology to deliver a premium viewing experience in home theaters, studios, and professional screening rooms. Engineered for 4K and Ultra HD projects, this screen features a wider, more substantial frame paired with a dedicated projection surface that maximizes projector performance. The result is a more immersive image with enhanced reference points, higher perceived contrast, and a refined, film-poster-quality presentation that appeals to discerning viewers and cinema purists alike.

• The 130" diagonal screen delivers a generous, immersive viewing experience appropriate for dedicated home theaters, media rooms, and small-to-medium screening spaces. The size balances seating distance with image impact, creating a cinematic vibe without overpowering the room. Paired with a high-quality 4K/Ultra HD source, it reveals fine detail, smooth gradients, and accurate color reproduction that stands up to calibration in professional setups.
• A wider, substantial frame defines the screen’s silhouette and provides a consistent visual reference for viewers. This frame acts as a precise boundary that helps eyes lock onto the image, which in turn enhances perceived contrast and depth. The frame’s robust construction also adds to the room’s aesthetic, delivering a clean, professional look whether the screen is in active use or on standby.
• The Cinema Contour projection surface is designed with modern display technology in mind, optimizing performance for 4K and Ultra HD content. The surface is engineered to support high-resolution detail, maintain color fidelity, and minimize hot spots or image inconsistencies across wide viewing angles. In practice, this means sharper text in 4K presentations, richer skin tones, and more accurate shadow details in dark scenes—all with a surface that resists glare and maintains clarity under typical room lighting.
• Designed for film enthusiasts and professional-grade viewing, the Cinema Contour frame and surface work together to deliver enhanced contrast and a sense of depth. The eye-reference provided by the frame helps viewers gauge brightness and contrast more naturally, which translates into a more convincing cinematic experience. This makes it an ideal choice for home theaters optimized for film viewing, as well as rental venues and screening rooms that demand consistent image quality.
• Easy integration with existing audiovisual systems is at the core of the Cinema Contour design. The screen is compatible with standard front-projection configurations and can be mounted to walls or ceilings depending on the room layout. The frame’s geometry supports straightforward alignment and leveling, supporting quick setup and reliable performance after installation. Regular cleaning and minimal maintenance keep the surface looking vibrant and film-like for years to come.

How to install Da-Lite Cinema Contour 130" Projection Screen

Installing the Cinema Contour 130" screen is a straightforward process that typically involves mounting the frame securely to a wall or ceiling, ensuring the screen is level, and aligning the projector to the screen surface. Follow these general guidelines to achieve optimal results:

• Plan the installation: Choose a viewing area with minimal ambient light intrusion and a wall or ceiling surface that can support the weight of the screen frame. Confirm the mounting location aligns with your projector’s throw distance and keystone requirements so the image fills the 130" surface without distortion.
• Prepare mounting hardware: Use wall or ceiling anchors appropriate for the surface and the screen’s weight. If you’re mounting on drywall, locate studs and use sturdy anchors. For brick or concrete walls, use masonry anchors and screws designed to bear the load.
• Attach mounting brackets: Securely mount the brackets to the surface according to the screen’s installation template. Use a level to ensure the brackets are perfectly vertical, as even a slight tilt can affect image geometry and the perceived frame reference.
• Mount the screen: With a helper, lift the Cinema Contour frame into place and attach it to the brackets. Double-check level alignment and tighten all fasteners to prevent any play or sag over time.
• Projector alignment: Position your projector so that the image lands squarely on the center of the 130" surface. Use the projector’s lens shift, zoom, and keystone controls to achieve a rectangular, undistorted image that fills the screen uniformly from edge to edge.
• Final adjustments: Calibrate color and brightness to suit the room’s lighting conditions. If you have room shaders, consider ambient light control options to maximize contrast on the Cinema Contour surface. Regularly inspect the frame and fasteners to maintain alignment, and clean the surface with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
