My Marquee 9501LC is hung and pointed in the right direction (barely more than that, yet) and I'm debating whether to use the CM functionality. If I do, I'll need to put it back in Wink

Room is well light controlled, current screen is 74" but I'm aiming to increase the screen to as close to 96" as TD will allow. Any thoughts on the benefit/lack thereof with contrast modulation?

I too am looking at this. From what I've read, there are a handful of folks who swear by it, but some, including Mike Parker if I recall correctly, say its not necessary.
