The E series is lacking several of the sound enhancements of the S series - its probable that they use different physical components as well. I think you can compare the A series to the S, but the E is really a low-end series for budget-conscious users...FWIW, even a Cnet reviewer is craving about the non-noise reducing S series new players (S638 in this case...)
