Unleash the power of your TV!


     If you're looking for the very best in media players, look no further than HD DIGITECH's HDX 1000 Networked Media Tank (NMT).  The HDX 1000 is widely regarded as the most versatile player on the market today.

     The HDX 1000 is a revolutionary network media streamer that supports the most demanding video codecs. There's a good reason why these players are called "tanks" -   they're built to handle everything you throw their way.

     Imagine a player that supports any video file up to a resolution of 1080p.  Imagine a player that can play ripped DVDs with full menu support.  Imagine a player that lets you watch YouTube, Google Video and other online media in the comfort of your living room.  In addition to all of that, the same player can download content from both BitTorrent as well as from Usenet newsgroups. Other media streamers don't even come close to what an HDX 1000 NMT can do.

     This is the only NMT that includes a 3-in-1 card reader (SDHC, MMC, Memory Stick Pro Duo), enabling direct access to photo and music files.  All output jacks are gold-plated for the best in connectivity.  HD DIGITECH has engineered the HDX 1000 to efficiently dissipate any heat.  Its thick aluminum alloy housing has eliminated the need for a noisy cooling fan.  Powered by HDMI 1.3a, the HDX 1000 supports pass-through of high-definition digital surround audio such as DTS HD-HR, DTS HD-MA, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD.

     So what are you waiting for?  Get behind the controls of this "tank" and start enjoying high-definition as it was meant to be seen.  HDX... for a superior High Definition Xperience.

 
 
Why HDX should be No. 1 on your list

 

 

     Its beauty and elegance goes way beyond its looks. Superior functionality and performance sets the HDX 1000 apart.  You can expect the most detailed videos and the cleanest, most robust audio available.  Plus,

  • The HDX 1000 has a thick aluminum housing that draws heat away from the chipset and any internal hard drive, much more efficiently than any other NMT.  The all-aluminum body results in a large surface area, acting as a radiator that dissipates heat very effectively.  It cools the unit better than the Popcorn Hour's thinner steel body.
  • The HDX 1000 build quality is much better than that of any other networked media tank.  If you line up all the networked media tanks next to each other, you can instantly see that the quality control process is much more stringent for the HDX1000.
  • The HDX 1000 is the best-looking NMT in the market today.  Its brushed aluminum body gives it the appearance of an expensive piece of equipment.  It closely matches the general appearance of the audio-visual equipment in your living room or home theater.
  • The HDX 1000 has a built-in memory card reader on the front panel.  It's perfect for people who take photos and shoot videos.  The great thing is that you can disable the card reader and have full use of not one, but two USB Host ports.
  • The HDX 1000 has both coaxial and optical S/PDIF digital sound output connections at the rear. These ensure compatibility with older surround-sound systems.  Other brands usually have only one or the other.
  • The HDX 1000 has a dedicated ON/OFF power switch.  Other NMT's require you to unplug the power adapter when you want to turn off the unit or to perform a hard 'reset'.
  • HD DIGITECH have proven themselves with on-time deliveries and the quickest warranty turnaround.
  • HD DIGITECH have their own dedicated HDX support forum.  Not only can you access the NMT and MPC Club forums for general NMT discussions, you can also access an HDX-specific forum as well.

      The 1080p-capable HDX 1000 media streamer gets the Ian Morris treatment in this video review. "It's a brilliant machine, offering good picture and sound quality, and support for virtually every video format under the sun."

     "We think it just has the edge over our other favourite media streamers, the Popcorn Hour A-110 and A-100, but it's a close contest and really boils down to a question of personal preference." - cnet u.k.

Rating: 4 stars (out of 5)


     For the downloaders and rippers out there, this is the media player you've been waiting for.  Other than DRMed files, it'll play anything; massive storage capacity; picture is excellent.

     Overall picture quality is just brilliant.  We tested the HDX... and it never ceased to impress us with its detailed picture quality and punchy sound.  We've yet to find anything that doesn't look great.

 

 

 

IT Reviews (March 16, 2009)

     The strengths of the HDX 1000 are clearly oriented towards video playback, and this is in fact extremely good. File support is up there with the best on the market, and you'll find flawless playback of formats such as MKV, H.264, MP4 and MOV along with more traditional AVI, DivX and Xvid.

     ... it's hard to criticise a device that offers excellent video support, impressive performance and access to such a wide range of online content.

     Other than DRMed files, it’ll play anything. Massive storage capacity. Picture quality is excellent.

     The HD Digitech is the first media player we’ve used that offers the flexibility and performance to rival a full-on Media Center PC.

     Where the HDX-1000 leaves Apple’s baby eating digital dust, though, is in format support. Everything we threw at it was played without fuss, from WAV, Flac and AAC music to AVI, DivX and hi-def open-standard MKV videos. It’ll even play ripped DVDs and Blu-rays, the latter at 1080p/24fps with audio intact. The only files it won’t play are DRM-protected ones.

     What you do get for your time and patience is what is possibly the most versatile and adaptable media streamer on the market, thanks in large due to its excellent support for a range of online content.

     While it's a media streamer at heart, there's so much more to the HDX and music and photo viewing aside, it offers excellent control and access to a burgeoning media library that's just waiting to be streamed around the home.
