4k/UHD Projector Screen 140"-150"

    As per thread title...

    Currently have a 5year old Panoview 120" electric screen triggered off my 1080P Projector.

    I'm looking at an early 2018 UHD/4k capable electric screen project.
    This is a sitting room setup but no ambient light as I'll soon be closing off leakage from doors and blackout blinds so don't want a mad gain screen that will bounce light out into the room as that bugs me.

    I'll be putting together a false wall so don't need an in-ceiling screen, an ordinary straight drop screen is fine but must have trigger and be ready for the move to UHD/4k when prices of Projectors drop more.

    I'd like tab tensioned (intrigued by the Draper borderless) and also the option of acoustically transparent (but unaware of gap between speaker and screen which will impact my decision).
    I can handle a 140" screen without acoustic transparency and closer to 150" with it.
    Finding it difficult to source what I'm after from various web searches...

    Any advice welcome on my new screen.

    Cheers
    S1

    I bought my tab tensioned screen from these guys six years ago and it is still perfect. It is not acoustic but they do have acoustic screens.

    FWIW I eventually settled on a Sapphire 142" Tab Tensioned and as predictable Richer Sounds came up trumps on pricing.
    Discounted the acoustically transparent as not happy with the micro gaps and eventual 4k source that may pick them out
