Hey Chip, figured you'd see this first. Have you ever noticed that on the AmPro 4600 brochure it lists contrast at 150:1?

It's a type-o. It's more like 130:1 
What ever it takes to keep the price down and the meatheads happy 
I have no idea what the real figure is but I think it's safe to say it's a tad more then that 
I'd say that anything that can go dead balls black to making you squint on a day light snow scene is good enough.
I think who ever typed that out swallowed his crack pipe.

ANSI?
A G90 Stack only gets 80:1 so 150:1 is something to be proud of.

LOL called that one right.
Yeah it could be ANSI contrast. I was just thinking that the average LC machine can do around 30 000:1 so I thought 150:1 was a little light ( pun intended )
