4:00:00 PM Johnny – Thank you for contacting the Sales department, how may I help you?
4:20:59 PM Customer – QS150HD are these series rear screen projection capable?
4:21:17 PM Johnny – No, the QS150HD is a front projection screen that has vertical supports behind the material so it is not made for rear projection.
4:21:33 PM Customer – ok. do u have anything that are rear projection capable with similar specs?
4:21:42 PM Customer – size being 12foot around
4:22:04 PM Customer – And having a stand easy to set up and take around cities
4:23:03 PM Johnny – Yes we have our Yard Master 2 Dual series, where you can project on either the front or back of the screen. It has a portable free-standing design that is easy to set-up/take-down so it should suit your needs nicely.

4:24:07 PM Customer – ok thanks.
4:24:19 PM Johnny – It’s my pleasure to help.
4:24:31 PM Customer – one more question: 16:10 vs. 16:9
4:24:43 PM Customer – if our projector is 16:10 native but 16:9 compatible.
4:24:47 PM Customer – can I buy a 16:9 screen?
4:24:52 PM Customer – I think I would prefer 16:10 screen
4:24:57 PM Customer – and all the ones u have are 16:9
4:25:12 PM Johnny – yes you can still buy a 16:9 screen to use with your projector. The two can work together but the format will not be exact. There is a little more height on a 16:10 aspect ratio than on a 16:9.
4:25:38 PM Customer – right to get an exact fit 16:10 would be better.
4:25:39 PM Customer – ok thanks
4:25:51 PM Johnny – Of course, you’re welcome
4:26:03 PM Johnny – Thank you for your interest in Elite Screens, and hope you have a great day.
4:27:08 PM Customer – same to you.
4:27:19 PM Johnny – thank you
