    Sim in a box screen, is it 16:10 ratio?

    I might have overlooked the frame dimensions or actual screen size, was wondering if it was 16:9? or 16:10...

    I don't have one (yet) but Foresight told me over the phone it's 16:10.

            the frame is 13x9 but the actual screen is only about 12x7.5

              I’m wondering how a 16:9 projector would look on the 16:10 ratio screen..

                Fine. I went with a 16:10 enclosure to maximize enclosure dimensions for my room (I wanted the largest frame possible to avoid potential swing complications.) I went with a 16:9 projector to go with 4k resolution. I have a small white bar of unprojected screen showing that I've ordered some black velvet flocking tape to mask off, but really that's only to satisfy my OCD. I don't think many would even notice it.

                  Cool! Got any pics before you masked off the white bar? I’m getting ready to order an enclosure from Carl’s and I’m leaning on the 16:10 since it has an extra foot in cage height..

                    Carl's Premium is what I have. Found a pic, hopefully you can see well enough to tell. Edit to add- the uneven top line is one of the baffles before I re hung it even. Click image for larger version  Name:	screen.jpg Views:	0 Size:	112.6 KB ID:	288971
