Comments on the Olive Opus CD Player


Olive recently announced the Opus as a High-end CD player that stores 1,100 CDs in lossless quality. Has anyone that purchased the Olive Opus have any comments on the unit’s sound quality? How long does it take to store your CD’s? Does it require an internet connection like the McIntosh MS300 Music server? Your comments on the Olive Opus are requested. Thanks..

I was told that both the McIntosh MS300 Music Server and the Olive Opus require an Ethernet connection. My stero equipment is a long way from my Router and it will be very difficult to connect to the Router due limited crawl space. Can I use a wireless connection from the device to my Router?
Based on my research so far, I am going to keep my MCD205 CD Player and forget the Olive Opus or the McIntosh MS300 Music Server. The music server concept is very interesting but I have too many technical issues connecting a music server to my Router that I do not want to deal with. I am not convinced that the extra money spent for either unit is worth it. Playing one CD at a time works for me and my McIntosh MCD205 sounds great. Thanks again for all your help.
