Very Nice Screen, average shipping

Greg from Dallas, TX on 1/5/2015

Verified customer

The screen itself is excellent, and can be assembled and wall mounted by one person. The black frame fabric does a great job sucking up any projector overshoot / misalignment if you have any. Image clarity on the screen is great. Other sizes are available from the MFG that Crutchfield doesn't list. If you want another size, maybe that can be arranged?

Pros: Easy to assemble and mount on wall. Great picture quality.

Cons: CEVA shipping was mediocre at best. Crutchfield lists this as "in stock" but it comes from the MFG. Took a few weeks to get the screen, and I had to hound Crutchfield to get status updates. The screen itself smells. If you can, assemble it and set it in the garage for a few days such that the odor can dissipate. I figured the smell would go away soon enough, so I mounted it to the wall as soon as I got it. Days later, our media still wreaks.

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
