- finally in their review GMP3 stated the E430 series is just a little bit under the S630 series for audio, and quite above the old S610 series. So i guess there can't be a huge difference between those two series.

According to the official Sony press release, that you can of course take with a pinch of salt, the new S series is the "best sounding Walkman ever"

Also I think that ClearStereo and ClearBass, which the E series don't have, can contribute to improving SQ considerably...
As for the CNET, I agree with you, which is why I wrote the FWIW (For What is Worth)
