Anybody with Stewart FireHawk Screen?

Anyone having the motorized retractable ones and have owned them for more than a year? What are your comments on the picture quality and on the screen developing ripples?

They have claimed the FireHawk will be able to work in ambient light situations which is interesting. And also, retractable pull-down screens are often claimed to have the disadvantage of developing ripples and uneveness. Will this be the same with the much touted Stewart screens?

Your replies may cause me to burst my budget for going for this expensive screen. Thanks.

Looks like we've got a Da-Lite user. Most likely I'll be in your club ~! I agree that prices for FireHawk screens are just too expensive. Anyway good things don't come cheap.

I'll be looking at the Da-Lite Tensioned Cosmopolitan Electrol.

Thanks guys. Since the retractable screens of Stewart are too expensive, I've decided to go for a fixed screen instead. Even the Stewart dealer recommended a fixed screen over electrically retractable ones although the latter looked quite impressive when in function.

Now it's either the Grayhawk or Firehawk.
