IMO quite better.
Not that V3 was bad, but V5 is more detailed without being harsh, soundstage is wider, instrument positioning is more precise. OTOH - V3 was more forgiving on bad recordings.
EDIT: Just realized that DSP-1 V5 comment was reffering to diamond differential "musical" A-GD DACs. FWIW my comments were based on V3 vs. V5 comparisons on "neutral" RE-1/RE-7.
