I use both an Epson SureColor P800 inkjet and a DNP DS80 dye sublimation printer. Yes, the dye sub has more saturation, but blacks are not as deep as it uses cyan, magenta, and yellow ribbon to create black instead of ink.
I would also say the dye sub doesn't handle as many values and gradients as nicely as inkjet, so it's a compromise.
P-30 Cibachrome/Ilfochrome, RIP, has always been my gold standard. From a Kodachrome slide or even Velvia, those colors prints were breath-taking.
