What a beautifully written review. From this it’s clear that the Diablo (divisive indeed!) is my winner. Thanks indeed!

Thanks. Encouraging for someone whose English is only a second language.

All the more commendable then.

Thanks. I had a chance to test the xdsd, although that was quite some time ago. In my opinion the Diablo has a much better sound. Bigger, more dynamic, more detailed. To me the choice would be obvious.
