resolutions while mitigating light penetration for a
brighter picture. The AcousticPro UHD design
maximizes sound penetration with minimal
attenuation without compromising picture quality.
The AcousticPro UHD material’s wide diffusion
uniformity offers a broad viewing angle with superb
picture quality across the entire surface. This provides
equal brightness levels on or off axis.
"Speaking of "observing", the Electric125H-AUHD performed admirably across a diversity of content and
at all hours of day and night; its ambient light suppression was top-notch." – Brian Dipert, EDN Network

Section 6: About Elite Screens
6.1 Company Description
Elite Screens Inc. is a California based company that specializes in making quality commercial and home-theater
projection screens for the retail and custom install sales channels. Our company began as an innovative venture
into the projection market by manufacturing veterans from the AV/IT industry. Elite Screens quickly established
itself as an entry level commercial and home theater screen manufacturer. This was accomplished by making a
quality product cost effective with a focus on mass-producing screen material, sizes and aspect ratios that were
most commonly preferred by AV customers in general. We focused on uniformity with what would match the
mainstream demographic while including extra features that are not usually included by other manufacturers. In
time, we progressed from just retail sales into the realm of custom installer/integrator manufacture as our
numerous reviews and awards will attest. We stand behind our product and are so certain of customer satisfaction
with the quality of our product that we offer a 2-year manufacturer's warranty which is twice the industry
standard.
In our continued devotion to excellence in products and service, we are committed to implementing green
practices with our production. We have adopted manufacturing methods that promote conservative regulation of
our energy needs. Our simple product designs combined with the expertise of our permanent staff ensures that
our entire line of products are made by experienced hands devoted to the high standards of today’s audio-video
