    I am not familiar with VUTEC screens, Adz. But the reviews I have read on the Silver were pretty encouraging.

      A couple of guys who have had a lot of screens and done detailed analysis of them concluded that the silverstar's gain is not as high as claimed, and that it may not be any higher than something like the highpower.

      I have not seen one personally, but everything else i have read about it was pretty positive. LIke most high gain screens, hoptspotting can be a bit of an issue, and it only recently became available as a rollup type screen.

        I have a sample of the SilverStar but not of the High Power although I did request one awhile ago

        The SilverStar is very bright compared to the HCCV, Firehawks, Greyhawks etc but it mutes the blacks compared to those (esp the firehawk). From what I've seen on my sample it looks very vibrant and the image litterally jumps out at you...but I'm not so sure it wouldn't get to be a little too much after awhile...esp on a large screen. Its almost like a new TV from the store in their high contrast (torch) mode...it looks great at first but quickly becomes bothersome. That said there's an awful lot of SilverStar fans out there so maybe I'm way off base on that.
