Wavetrain Distribution launches Fire-Fx media systems in Australia
Wavetrain Distribution has added American home cinema media system manufacturer Fire-Fx to their portfolio of home cinema and custom installation brands. “Fire-Fx is not a new company, it’s been born battle-ready by its founders who are ex-military coders and veterans. They know what’s required to ensure reliability and have adopted ‘milspec’ requirements to their high performance media system,” says Wavetrain Distribution sales manager Paul McLean. “Fire-Fx boasts a full ecosystem of black boxes to deploy entertainment pleasure with ease.”
Fire-Fx has a simple principle: providing people with the best, fastest, most intuitive way to store, control and experience media content. Fire-Fx doesn’t control the source or limit users to streaming media over the Internet. Plus, there is no compromise on the quality of a user’s collection.

The product range starts with the UPLAY or Universal Player. This player partners with storage devices such as a network shares, NAS or USB devices. The networked D Series (Desktop) & R Series (Rack mount) partner with corporate quality Fire-Fx NAS units referred to as HUBs.
The HUBs scale from 6TB up to the 30TB. Fire-Fx runs Linux OS systems on all its devices, ensuring blazing fast response and control on screen plus playback. The HUB comes loaded with embedded software to help you manage downloading of content in the cloud, securely, via Usenet services. The ‘secret sauce’ software intelligently renames and organises all your files on the HUB. Fire-Fx also recently included the ‘RIMP’ or Rack Mount Importer, this rips DVD and Blu-ray with bit for bit copies.
“This a media system that is made for integrators, with quite amazing plug and play control drivers, for RTI, Control4, Savant & Creston. Most domestic media players struggle with reliability—the quality of this category has never been there. Thankfully Fire-Fx fills the gap in the medium-end media server category” says Wavetrain Cinemas managing director David Moseley.
“We expect a compelling, high quality media system to reflect well on our cinema projects and are very pleased with Fire-Fx and what it delivers to our dealers, right down to the end user.”
