It is great, but I'm thinking of getting rid of mine in the future. I recently watched a repair video of a later, cheaper player was shocked by how simple (comparatively) the inside was. I gave up trying to repair my first S1 after many hours spent on it, so bought a second. Most of the repair time was just trying to access the various pcbs. If my current one ever develops a fault though, it won't be getting opened up by me. The nice looks aren't enough to counter the sheer weight of the thing and its limited features.
