celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0 100-Inch CLR High-Contrast Screen for Laser TV, Black

celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0 – CLR High-Contrast Screen Designed for Laser TV

The celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0 turns your living room into a home cinema with an image diagonal of 100 inches at the touch of a button. It stands freely in front of the wall, rises out of its housing only for movie night and disappears again afterwards. Its CLR high-contrast fabric is specially optimised for laser TVs and delivers vivid colours and deep blacks even in daylight.

• Matched to the steep laser TV angle: directs the projector light evenly towards the viewer and absorbs ceiling light and daylight.
• Gain 0.65 for a deep black level: dark contrast fabric for excellent black levels and rich colours.
• Glare-free instead of display gloss: matte fabric without distracting reflections from windows or lamps.
• Freestanding, no drilling: stands on a lowboard or the floor in front of the wall, permanent wall mounting optional.
• All-aluminium housing, Edge-Free: premium, dimensionally stable chassis, borderless image without a frame.

Goes well with: 4K laser TVs · laser TV pull-out for shallow furniture

Designed specifically for laser TVs: The CLR fabric is designed for ultra short throw projection. For conventional home cinema projectors, an ALR/high-contrast screen is the right fit; our screen buying guide will help you decide.

Why a CLR screen for a laser TV?

A laser TV casts its image upwards at a very steep angle from just a few centimetres directly below the screen. At this angle, a standard white screen also reflects ambient light, so black levels and contrast quickly look washed out in the living room. The CLR high-contrast fabric of the HomeCinema V2.0 is designed precisely for this: its lenticular sawtooth microstructure directs the projector light coming from below towards the viewer and absorbs incoming ceiling light. This is exactly what makes a CLR fabric the only sensible fabric type for laser TVs and ultra short throw projectors; the fine structure also reduces the grainy laser speckle of some laser projections.

The low gain of 0.65 is a deliberate quality feature: the less stray light the fabric reflects, the deeper the black level and the stronger the contrast – a level that a standard white screen with higher gain cannot achieve in a bright room. Sufficient projector light output is important; current laser TVs, for example from Hisense, Formovie or Epson, clearly exceed the guideline figure of around 2,500 ANSI lumens. An often underestimated advantage over a TV: the matte fabric does not mirror, so windows, lamps or bright walls do not create reflections on the image. The viewing angle of 170° (85° per side) is enough for wide seating arrangements, and the surface reproduces 4K detail without texture artefacts, approved up to 8K.

Applications: what the celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0 is suited for

A TV replacement that isn't always there: Instead of a constantly visible black TV, the image only rises out of the lowboard for film night and then disappears completely again. In use, CLR filtering ensures rich colours and clear black levels, even when the room isn't pitch dark.

Rented flats and frequent moves: No wall plugs, no holes in the wall, no damage. Freestanding, the screen is quickly dismantled and taken with you – the ideal companion when your next home is already waiting.

Lighter than a large TV: At around 24 to 28 kg, the screen weighs much less than a TV of comparable size (easily 50 to 75 kg) and is correspondingly easier to transport for presentations or temporary set-ups.

Set-up and installation of the celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0

The floor-rising design is fundamentally different from wall or ceiling motor screens: the straight-lined all-aluminium housing stands in front of the wall, usually on a low TV unit or lowboard. When switched on, the motor raises the fabric to full image height via the scissor mechanism. No drilling is needed in this freestanding set-up, and the unit is ready for use in just a few minutes.

Particularly flexible in the living room: the slim chassis can be freestanding, lowered flush into a lowboard from above thanks to the integrated carrying handles, or fixed firmly to a wall or furniture with the supplied mounting brackets, which tilt by +/-1.5° (drilling required). Adjustable swivel feet on the underside compensate for uneven floors and ensure a secure stand that is precisely aligned with the projector. Your laser TV also stands on the floor or lowboard directly in front of it; you will find the exact distance in your projector's data sheet.

Several elements ensure the flatness that is essential for CLR fabrics:

• Spiral roller prevents pressure marks in the fabric: On basic motorised screens, the bonded joint between fabric and roller tube forms a small edge which, over the years, can press into the fabric as a horizontal wave as it rolls up. The spiral roller has a milled recess for this: the start of the fabric lies flat in the roller, so after the first turn the fabric continues to roll up evenly and without creases.
• Lateral tab-tension system for taut edges: Teflon-coated cable guides on the long sides tension the multi-layer PET fabric perfectly flat and keep it crease-free right into the corners.
• Integrated protective flap: covers the top edge of the fabric when retracted and protects the CLR fabric from dust.

Control: motor, trigger and remote control

In the simplest case, the quiet tubular motor raises and lowers the fabric via IR or RF remote control. Full convenience comes from automatic coupling with your projector:

• Wireless USB trigger included: plugs into a free USB port on your laser TV and automatically raises the screen when it is switched on and retracts it again when switched off. Controls only the screen mechanism, not audio signals.
• celexon HomeCinema Funktrigger FT1 (optional): is looped into the projector's power cable and detects switching on and off from the actual power consumption. This helps if the USB port keeps supplying power for some time after switching off or if no port is free, and in practice it is particularly reliable.
• Motorised laser TV slide-out (optional): When the projector is switched on, the slide-out and screen move into position together; the extendable platform pushes the laser TV forward to the right throw distance, ideal for shallow furniture or particularly large image widths.

For permanent integration into control systems, the integrated control unit also offers a push button on the housing, RS232/RS485 and potential-free contacts, so the screen can also be operated via a central room control system.

Available sizes and versions

The black and white versions are technically identical; the choice depends solely on which housing colour suits your living space better.

Different design? The same CLR HomeCinema fabric is available as a fixed-frame screen and as a Motor Tension for wall/ceiling. The ultimate premium model among floor-rising screens is the HomeCinema Plus.

Is the CLR HomeCinema V2.0 right for you?

• Yes, if you use a laser TV and want a freestanding CLR screen that needs no drilling and disappears into its housing after the film.
• Not ideal if the screen is to stay fixed on the wall or come out of a ceiling/wall cassette – other CLR designs are available for this (see above).
• Not suitable if you use a normal 4K projector from a greater distance instead of a laser TV.

Check before you buy

• Laser TV model: The required distance from the wall varies depending on the device; it's worth checking the manual of your laser TV.
• Furniture depth: If the lowboard isn't deep enough, the motorised laser TV slide-out creates the necessary throw distance.
• Footprint: The screen needs some space in front of the wall (overall width as per table) and a power socket within reach.
• Room light: The CLR fabric improves contrast in ambient light, but is no substitute for darkening in direct sunlight.

Frequently asked questions about the celexon CLR HomeCinema V2.0

Does the screen work with any projector?
The CLR high-contrast fabric is specifically designed for laser TVs that project from below – light from above, on the other hand, is rejected. A normal projector hits the fabric from exactly this unfavourable direction, especially when ceiling-mounted; the image then looks much darker, uneven or colour-shifted. For regular projectors, we recommend an ALR/high-contrast screen or a white screen instead.

What does the gain value of 0.65 mean for image quality?
With contrast fabrics, a low gain is a mark of quality: the more precisely the fabric holds back stray light, the deeper the black level and the punchier the contrast. At 0.65, the HomeCinema V2.0 strikes a well-balanced compromise between rich contrast and image brightness. The light output comes from your laser TV, and current models have plenty of it.

Does the screen reflect like a TV?
No. The matte CLR fabric doesn't create the mirror-like reflections of windows or lamps that you know from glass displays. The projected image is reflected diffusely; many users find this more pleasant than the direct light emitted by a TV.

Can I use the screen permanently in the living room without drilling?
Yes. The floor housing stands freely on a lowboard or the floor, and power is supplied via a normal mains cable, so no drilling is needed in this set-up. If you want to fix the housing in place, mount it on the wall or furniture with the supplied mounting brackets; this does require drilling.
