Guido,
I only go by the insides of the dv-50s, and Dv-60, Ux-03, and such. I have the Dv-60 for bout 3 weeks now.

Thank you Anthony, as you may be the only one who has direct experienced both DV-60 and X-03, what are the sonic differences between the two?
Anthony,

What are your experiences with the differences in the DV60, DV50S & X03?
Saxo, I have listened to a DV-50 and an UX-3 in the same room with the same music on the same day two weeks ago. . . . unfortunately it was not on the same system, so my findings are very suspect. My outward impression is of the DV-50 to be warmer, less detailed, and with slower transients than the UX-3. The DV-50 system also displayed a larger but less specific sound stage than the system with the UX-3. But. . . how much of what I heard can be imputed to the players? And how much was instead caused by the rest of two very different and yet equally disappointing systems?
I hope Anthony can shed some better light on these excellent devices.
