Zappiti 4K HDR Range (player / server)

Winner of Product of the Year Award

We have watched Zappiti’s collection of movie players evolve from full-HD to Ultra High-Definition and now to delivery of High Dynamic Range too, all the while maintaining their effortless and attractive user interface which rivals the world’s most expensive server systems, yet comes together at a fraction of their price (the mid-level 4K HDR player/server is AU$550). They can be used with internal hard drives to store and serve both movies and music, and Zappiti also has available multi-bay NAS drives to provide enormous storage capacities for media which can then be served all around the home, and which can also come with a disc drive to rip your DVDs and Blu-ray straight to storage. For movie collectors, or for anyone wanting to clear their shelves of movie boxes and get things instantly accessible, we reckon Zappiti provides the most cost-effective high-quality solution available.

Zappiti NAS Rip 4K HDR

"It’s a totally unique solution for home theaters"

The Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR is a terrific, one of a kind product. It is easy to use, and I saw no issues at all while ripping movies to it. For what is a complicated software-intensive device, it’s really plug-and-play for the end-user. (...) for the collector of films, it’s a fabulous solution that works as advertised. To use the Zappiti NAS is to want one if you have an extensive home theater setup. (...) the ZAPPITI NAS is a breakthrough product with capabilities and ease of use that no one else offers. I want one in my home theater system.

Zappiti 4K HDR (complete solution)

The Zappiti 4K HDR media system provides a scalable multiroom solution with very little compromise when it comes to browsing and playing back movies and music. Other solutions on the market offer similar features, but most of these require that you use a PC for playback and do most of the work to fill in the data for your collection. Also, Zappiti doesn't have the boutique prices of similar hardware solutions with a more locked-in infrastructure like Kaleidescape. I was really impressed with not only the video quality of the Zappiti players, but the system's overall ease of use, from ripping titles in my disc library to the NAS, to navigating and selecting a movie. If a multi-room digital media solution is on your shopping list and you don't want to have to rebuy your movie collection in digital-only format, Zappiti's solution is definitely worth a close look.

Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR

The NAS RIP 4K HDR can be described as a beautifully finished NAS that includes an optical drive to rip all your optical media to Blu-ray Ultra HD discs. This way, you can make a secure backup of all your disks and, with the Zappiti One SE 4K HDR, you can watch your movies on up to four devices simultaneously in your home. Based on my user experience, I highly recommend it!

Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR

In conclusion, even if the Zappiti Nas Rip 4K HDR represents a budget, it is now the only 4K Ultra Blu-Ray dematerialization solution in the world to date, which makes it a unique product. its simplicity of use, its large storage capacity, its high quality video processing (via the Zappiti 4K HDR), its low cost of adding additional area, its film cover system now completely finalized, its French manufacturing and its premium support offered are all assets that make it a benchmark product in the field. As you can see, the Zappiti Nas Rip 4K HDR experience is a real treat. It allows you to live your passion for cinema, in every room of a house with the original video quality, via a successful ergonomics, without the constraints of the physical disc.

Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR

Never again have to search the collection for a movie you would like to watch: this is the promise from the Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR solution. (...) And on that, Zappiti adds two exclusives: the system of navigation and home indexation of a "dematerialized" discs collection, skated by its many years of existence, and suddenly of a very rich indexing database. And second exclusivity (in such a solution), as its full name evokes, the Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR dematerializes directly CD, DVD, Blu-ray 2D & 3D, but also Ultra HD Blu-ray. (...) And it adds features that are not accessible to discs, such as simultaneous viewing in multiple areas of the house. It is a trend in audio today largely spread (multi-room sound), but much more complicated to set up video. Not with the Zappiti NAS RIP 4K HDR.

Zappiti Pro 4K HDR Audiocom Cinema Edition

"Best of high end AWARD"

The 1.000.000 dollar question is if the Audiocom Cinema Edition is worth the extra investment of a €1.000? Yes, yes and yes again! The implemented modifications/upgrades to the already very potent Zappiti Pro 4K HDR platform transform this player into a high-end media player pur sang. Audiocom did an excellent job in elevating the audio and video performance to reference level to satisfy the most demanding home cinema enthusiasts. If you would blind test these units, I’m not sure you would suspect that they are from the same brand! That’s how distinctive the differences are. The upgrade is like moving from a BMW 3 series with a three-liter engine to a magical M3. It’s all about performance and that extra horsepower. There’s still one thing missing though: Dolby Vision support. Maybe we’ll get that with the next generation of processors? Best of high end AWARD!

"a fabulous impression of relief, which would almost make believe on certain plans, that one is in 3D"

The most surprising, however, remains the more subtle details accompanying these changes: the quality of the stamps, the gain in perception of the micro-details, and above all the overall homogeneity! (..) Even in the acoustic surges of violent action scenes with loud noise, everything is in place. There is neither projection nor aggressiveness, nor feeling of "confusion", everything remains stable, controlled in a way, in the good sense of the word. I think the work of the clock has an important role in this result. (...) This results in excellent readability, with voices, whether on films or sung in concerts, which inevitably gain in presence and clarity of understanding.

(...) The second element that appeared to me is a gain in fluidity. (...) And then, as the running-in progressed, the characteristic specific to this device, the most important and the most impressive from a less point of view, began to appear: it is the absence of digital structure of the image! (...) Add to that a grain of film which becomes extremely pleasant, as if the space between each grain, where one often has the feeling that the digital artefacts are lodged, was absolutely cleaned, empty any defect. And the direct result of this effect, is a fabulous impression of relief, which would almost make believe on certain plans, that one is in 3D, with a staging of the various plans towards the depth of the image new for me and that I had previously perceived with such a presence, only in the cinema (IMAX projection in particular). Again, and without having sufficient technical knowledge to justify the visual experience regardig the technical improvements implemented by AUDIOCOM, I nevertheless think that the implementation of the clock has a lot to do with it.

"high-level performance"

Zappiti Pro 4K HDR

In cinema, the Magic Pixel diffuses its magic with lightness, for example on Alita in UHD HDR. And that's not bad, because the image is never hard, with particularly well cut outlines. The color intensity is strong but without excess, accentuating an effect of depth which will be sublimated by a good diffuser. (...) On the sound side, on the HDMI 2 output, it is flawlessly precise, delivering all the dynamics and absolute clipping of the effects of the 5.1 to 7.1.4 mixes, which we have chained together for fun with unprecedented ease thanks to its great dexterity in collection management. (...) As long as we have a nice dematerialized personal reserve, the Zappiti Pro 4K HDR player is quite breathtaking with its piloting agility and high-level performance.

The Zappiti One SE 4K HDR media player is a pleasant device to use and we did not experience any lags or issues when we tested it. We also didn’t experience any issues when we watched MKV 1080p AVC, as well as 2160p HDR 10-bit files; and while at it, our TV instantly switched to the HDR mode which was pretty neat. We also compared the image quality delivered by the Zappiti One SE 4K HDR media player with the one from nVidia Shield TV – Android TV player, and the Emby Android. None of these two featured a video post-treatment function unlike Zappiti. As for the Magic Pixel technology – which is always activated along with the Zappiti media player – offers you extra brightness and contrast, as well as allowing the image to benefit from more detailed textures without overdoing things. This is to make your entertainment experience more enjoyable. Overall, it’s a very good HDR media player and we’re definitely recommending the Zappiti One SE 4K HDR media player to you.

At U.S. $299.00, I consider the Zappiti One HDR a good deal. It's easier to set up than a PC or Mac dedicated to video playback, and it has as much storage as you want to buy. My calculations are that my 4TB hard drive would hold more than 200 Blu-ray movies. The Zappiti can take up to a 16TB drive. If you want to try additional units to distribute video around the house, the Zappiti Mini units are U.S $250.00 and have no provision for internal drives, although you can mount external drives. With no storage attached, they are a great way to view your collection on your main Zappiti in other rooms of your house, assuming your home network can support the speed needed.I can't think of an easier way to enjoy your videos, audio files, and movies. (...) However you use it, the Zappiti One 4K HDR media server has solid software and hardware, is being constantly updated, and the multi-room video and audio distribution features make it even more valuable.

The Zappiti Mini 4K HDR is a fantastic media player that has an exceptional build quality to it. The device comes with all of the connections that you could possibly need and is very simple to setup. The GUI is intuitive and well thought out, allowing the user to be able to access their content quickly and easily. The Zappiti Media Center clearly has had a lot of thought put into its design and is a great alternative to Kodi and Plex as it does not require as much setup and tweaking as they do. (...) There is one thing that is clear however and that is that the Zappiti Mini 4K HDR is not just another Android box. It doesn't pretend to be the same as other boxes on the market and the reason they are using the Android operating system is so that the user has more options available to them with the device. The Zappiti Mini 4K HDR is an outright killer media player, not an Android box that has poorly developed apps built in or re-skins of existing apps. (...)
