Seymour-Screen Excellence Raises-its-Bar with Even Higher-Performing Acoustically Transparent Film Screen, Enlightor-Neo Enlightor-Neo is the smoothest acoustically transparent film screen ever to hit the market. It boasts a thin-fabric pattern so finely-woven that it’s nearly impossible to detect, even when standing inches away, therefore no minimum seating distance is required. A step-up from the company’s legendary Enlightor-4K A.T. screen, Neo is more matte, higher gain, and delivers improved acoustic attenuation. Managing Director Chris Seymour is so confident in the screen that he challenges CEDIA Expo attendees to try and detect any visible structure to the material. Ames, IA – August 7, 2017 – Reference-grade, made-in-the-USA film screen manufacturer Seymour-Screen Excellence is on a mission to raise-the-performance-bar by way of its new Enlightor-Neo 4K / HDR acoustically transparent film screen surface. The company will unveil Enlightor-Neo at CEDIA Expo (booth #4947) in ongoing immersive theater demos. For a decade now, Seymour-Screen Excellence’s Enlightor-4K A.T. surface has been the reference choice among top CEDIA integrators and movie / TV post production facilities for its class-leading sonic and visual qualities. According to Seymour-Screen Excellence Managing Director Chris Seymour, “The benchmark for A.T. performance within the Seymour-Screen Excellence line and among CEDIA integrators and the post production facilities is due to be improved yet again by way of Enlightor-Neo.”
