Harkness Screens 2D Perlux® screens and 3D Spectral™ screens were
recently installed in all 12 auditoriums of Muvico Village 12 in
Fredericksburg, VA, a licensed initiative through Paragon
Entertainment.
The 70,000-square-foot entertainment center features a Splitsville
16-lane bowling section and a gourmet restaurant. Of the 12 cinema
auditoriums, four are 3D and utilize Harkness’ Spectral 240 silver
screens, while the remaining auditoriums provide 2D content with
Harkness’ Perlux 140. The three largest auditoriums in the venue
have screens measuring over 65 feet each and feature VIP premier
balcony access for 21-and-over guests with waiter service for
cocktails and food. The other nine screens range in size from 30 to
48 feet.
The Spectral 240 features a high extinction ratio and can be used
successfully in auditoriums where 2D and 3D are both shown.
Paragon Entertainment recently opened a second location in Miami
that also features Harkness Screens. The company has plans to build
several theatres over the next few years in Virginia, Washington,
D. C., Chicago and Pennsylvania.
