I saw Captain Marvel here in the electric reclining seats, was highly impressed with the setup and was well worth the visit. General movie soundscape was amazing with ATMOS and the screen/glasses produced the most convincing 3D I've seen. Only two slight negatives, I found the dialog sections to have a slight echo effect which aren't present in a regular IMAX and I had a weird reflection issue with the glasses very slightly reflecting my face/skin in the very bottom of the glasses which produced a slight light fog effect.

I wanted to understand what projection/audio equipment justifies Cineworld cinema charging £12 over £7 at Vue.
I can't find web information to help determine precisely what they have.

Most Cineworld screens still seem to be using their original digital projectors from when they started to retire their film fleet. Cineworld charge £12 because they can, not because they are any good. They dropped the price in Bedford to £5 to compete with the new Vue there as they haven't got the budget to refurbish it (most screens only have 5.1, only 2 screens have full surround). Stevenage has constant problems with their projectors and sound stage even though the screens have been refurbished. I only use Cineworld because of a discounted unlimited card, if I had to pay they wouldn't be my choice.
yes indeed, it looks that way - if the seat booking plans are correct it looks like screens are wider at our Cineworld,compared to the Vue's,
both show most screens with 16 seats width, but whilst with cineworld ones the screen runs the full width of those seats, it is only 80% of their width in vue,
so you could be siiting oof of the screen edge.
