EPV Screens EF115HUST-DS2 vs Elite Screens Aeon CLR 3 115"
Two 115" UST-class ALR screens, identical stated 0.8 gain — which should you buy?
The short answer
Buy the EPV EF115HUST-DS2 if the widest documented viewing cone is the deciding spec — its stated 160° half-gain angle beats Elite's stated 85° at the identical 0.8 gain, though EPV carries no tracked price in our data. Buy the Elite Aeon CLR 3 115" if you want a checkable price today: $999.00 tracked against a stated $1,541 MSRP, for the same 115" 16:9 diagonal and gain.
Same diagonal, same aspect ratio, same stated gain: 115" 16:9 at 0.8 apiece. From there the sheets diverge on material-class naming, viewing angle, and whether either one is priced at all.

Reading the numbers honestly
The material names differ even though the underlying job doesn't: EPV states the generic UST_ALR class, while Elite states its branded CLR (ceiling-light-rejecting) class — different vocabulary for the same lenticular UST-screen material our compatibility engine treats as one class. The viewing angle is a real, stated difference: EPV states a wider 160° half-gain angle against Elite's narrower stated 85°. Pricing is where the honesty gap is starkest — Elite tracks at $999.00 against a stated $1,541 MSRP (roughly 35% off list), while EPV carries no tracked price in our data and renders as 'price unknown.' One internal note: this 115" Aeon CLR 3 is the sized-SKU sibling of the 103" Aeon CLR 3 (SCR-0004) already compared elsewhere in our catalog against the original Aeon CLR — same family, different diagonal.
