ReQuest launches the F3, packing its multi-zone Serious Play server technology into a new compact chassis.
For clients more serious about their music it plays 96kHz/24-bit HD audio (as well as conventional mp3 files), together with streaming radio, NetSync for iTunes and Pandora support. It also carries out automatic dual encoding.
The MediaPlayer (or IMC) allows for HD media playback, with support for online video services (YouTube, Hulu, Netflix), archived DVDs and blu-ray changer control (via additional blu-ray connection kit). It can also act like another audio zone, allowing one to stream music on a connected home theatre system.
The F3 handles up to x3 NAS devices, while the fanless chassis (and internal SSD as an option) ensure silent operation.
