Need a Sound Transparent Screen .. (1 Viewer)

[Kip P.]

Hi,
I need advice on a screen for my dedicated home theater. Cost is an issue, but I don't want picture quality to suffer because of my budget.

So, here goes:

1) 16:9 ratio ... 140" on the diagonal.

2) White screen, but has to be sound transparent. (Speakers will be behind the screen.)

3) I prefer a black border (frame).

4) Easy to assemble.

5) Looks amazing in a room with no external light coming in.

Am I forgetting anything?

What's my budget? I'd prefer to see what I can get for what ... give me choices, if you can, and explain why for each.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Kip P.

PS I looked at 2 on Amazon ... the bad reviews really "unsold" me on those models.

No screen help or opinions?

Just wondered what went wrong with this question?
Too much work to answer? No screen experts out there?
Did I phrase it incorrectly?

Trying to improve ... to get some help,

Kip P.

You want an Acoustically Transparent (AT) screen. There’s a bunch available.
