From the hard ware is different between these two Onkyo NDS 1 vs NDS 1000
 
NDS !000 has better Jitter Clock and Sound Quality is also better than NDS 1
 
NDS 1000 : better soundsatge and better depth than NDS 1
 
NDS 1000 : better tonal balance , high more extended and more open
                  better Bass more clean and detail Bass comnpare to NDS 1
 
NDS 1000 has better Build Quality with Stainless Steel Body vs NDS 1 from Plastic
 
NDS 1000 weigh 1,1 Kg , NDS 1 weigh only 0,m4 Kg

Today i have back my PSU DIY with Torodial transformer ex my Defected Monitor Audio.
 
The Result is very good , my impression as follow :
 
High : more prominent and free and more detail
 
Mid : more body and full sound, more clear and detail 
        Piano sound very detail and i can hear the echo from every tone
 
Bass : more  impact and very deep and clean and detail Bass 
 
Soundstage : wider and has better depth now 
 
Separation : much better amd i can hear the instrument placement more acurate.
                  The Background is now very Black
 
Conculsion ; Onkyo NDS 1000 with external DIY PSU improve the Sound Quality very good.
                   No wonder many Company from U K sell many type of external PSU for NDS 1. some
                   sell the PSU more expensive than the Onkyo NDS 1.
 
Recomandation : it is worth it to upgrade the PSU for Onkyo NDS 1000
                         can improve SQ about 30 %
