I am not familiar with the Olive system, but from what I have read about it, I agree that the HDX and Olive seem to be similar conceptually. The Naim is extremely user friendly (plug and play might be a stretch, but it is far easier to use than a PC-based music server) and that fact combined with its outstanding musicality makes it an easy choice for me. Right now I am using a Macbook Pro and Wavelength Cosecant for a music server in my primary system, but when I get the HDX, the Mac/Cosecant server will get incorporated into another system.
Best digital stream player
No matter how expensive any cd player is, it is just do a best guess of what is on the cd. I don't think cd player will be completely gone in a couple years because LP is coming back. But I feel the digital stream player have big advantage over cd player and all audio company will come up with their new digital stream player in the coming years. Digital stream player either use usb or network cable to directly read music file from PC/file server and are slowly adapted by audiophiles.
Digital stream player is still new to lots of people. Which one is the best digital stream player in the market?
1)DCS Scarlatti upsampler
2)PlayBack Designs MPS-5
3)Linn Klimax DS
Or is there any other newcomers better than those three?
