Right now I am mainly using the dsd, I like it alot,sounds better, more open, you can change the opamp on it and slightly change the sound a bit, plays cue, the screen is more visible in direct sunlight and navigation seems easier to me. the s1 has very long battery life and better equalizer and there is a Bluetooth version, and is more compact but won't play cue, and isnt as powerful and from time to time on some tracks has some electrical noise in the background, but if you value battery life and want a powerful bass boost then the s1 but if you want to roll amps, use a 2.5 mm balanced phones, or use .cue files then the dsd, I usually use the s1 when I am cycling or going on long trips, the z3 is also really good but I would recommend the s1 over it, and if you don't mind 7-9 hour batter life and have the budget I would recommend the dsd over the other 2Thanks! However your reply opened up a few more questions.... the Z3 and DSD have been on my list too, you see, i really like the walnut v2, but I'd like a display of some sort, and even a hold button if possible, (or lock button, to prevent from accidentally pushing buttons in my pocket). I know the S1 doesnt have a lock,b ut have read teh buttons really need to be deliberately pushed so i wouldnt be worried about that.
ANYWAYS, you have experience with the S1, DSD and Z3..... would you suggest one over the other two????
thanks!
