Olive O6HD

Digital music goes audiophile.

The new Olive O6HD is the world's first music server to combine the convenience of digital music with an audiophile sonic performance. It starts with a state-of-the art differential DAC along with a dedicated linear power supply for the analog output stage. Add to that our patent-pending design methodologies and enjoy a warm, full-bodied, and spacious sound with an exceptionally realistic soundstage. A sound so lively and clear, you'll want to reach out and touch the performers!
High-precision power supply.
There's an old audio engineering axiom that says the quality of sound is inherently linked to the quality of the power supply. It is the analog section of audio devices that is extremely sensitive to interference and supply stability. That means the layout and grounding design of any power supply has a decisive influence on the sound quality of the whole system.

High-end headphone DAC.
Want to enjoy your music all by yourself? The O6HD features a separate headphone DAC that is powered by a dedicated 24-bit/192 kHz PCM1792! Throw in TI's top-of the line TPA6120A2 High Performance Audio Amplifier (built on a current-feedback architecture) and you won't miss a note. Guaranteed!

Born for HD Music.
The O6HD is predestined--and pre-designed--for the future of High Definition music. And now it also comes to you preloaded with 12 HD tracks by Grammy award-winning Chesky records. Did you know HD music delivers 250X times the resolution of CD music! You have to hear it to believe it!

6,000 CDs. Each one just a touch away.

The new O6HD turns your music collection into a whole new experience and takes your appreciation to an extraordinary new level. Simply insert a CD, push the record button and your CD is automatically copied to the ultra-quiet 2TB AV hard drive. Load up to 6,000 in their original quality, each tagged with all important album information and cover art. The O6HD also instantly organizes your music and allows easy access with Olive's revolutionary touch-screen navigation. Browsing your music library has never been this much fun.

True beauty is more than skin deep.

The Olive O6HD sounds amazing - and we're proud of that. However, we can't deny that we're also extremely proud of how good it looks. With its elegant aluminum enclosure, polished frame and distinctivedesign patterns, it's quite the conversation starter. Even better, its design significantly improves both functionality and sonic performance. See (and hear) for yourself.
