DTS 400 -vs- Dx 93

[Scott W.]

Does any one own both a DTS 400 and a DX 93?

I would like an opinion on which to buy. I currently have a RO 150 and a RS 2e, and I need something to get into corners and sand the small stuff.

I searched and read several threads but never really found anything comparing the two.

Thanks,

Scott W.

I think the DX 93 has a bigger amplitude. For fine-sanding the DTS 400 is the better choice. If you want to remove old paint from  a stair or Windows the DX is the right one.
In my shop I have the DS 400 EQ (predecessor model of the DTS) and a Fein Multimaster.

Thanks for the reply Markus.

Anyone else have an opinion?

I went through the same decision a couple of years ago.  i chose the DTS400 (DS400 EQ) because I though the shape was more comfortable and the pad was a little larger, while still triangular in shape.  I have no regrets.  Great for sanding into tight spots, and for small sanding jobs and for edge sanding as well.  Smooth operation, like all Festool sanders.

Thanks David,

I ordered the DTS from Tommy C. today
