I've owned both the US and International S3, the Wolfson-bearing International model sounds better. The volume output of the International S3 is a bit low, however if you Root the device you can install audio tweaks to fix that (note: these tweaks are NOT Voodoo, Voodoo is NOT available for the Galaxy S3, these are adaptations of the old Voodoo tweak).
Having said all of that, both S3s are capable of using USB DAC/amps on stock software via USB OTG, so if you really want to improve the quality you have that option also. In the portable sources forum there is a thread "USB audio and Android devices" (or something like that) with information on that, including all DACs confirmed working with the S3.
