No source names the projector in this room. 4K Laser is what Prasads PCX specifies for the format (the published specification), so it is what the brand promises rather than something checked here. Treat the score as indicative.
Why IQ 54
519 m² of lit picture · full marks at 700 m² · no source on file
4K Laser · what the format specifies · no source on file
no frame shape published for this room · scored at the base
no sound specification published
⌷ Size is scored on the picture, not the fabric. This screen is taller than its projector's frame, so a chunk of it is never lit and doesn't count.
