Can someone help figuring this out:
Gmsarena in this Oneplus One review http://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_one-review-1101p7.php says the audio quality is great with an amplifier but bad with headphones.
So, imagine if a plug a Cayin C5 amp to Oneplus One, the sounds become great? If i plug just a VSD3S to Oneplus One the sound become bad?
Is this it? What's the difference in the graph with headphones and without headphones?

The smartphone impressed us with very high volume levels and excellent readings in every part of the test.
It's not all roses though - plugging in a pair of headphones caused quite a lot of degradation. Its volume levels plummeted to only average levels, the frequency response started missing the mark now and then, while the IMD and the stereo crosstalk increased too. It's a decent performance here, particularly given the market segment, but not quite the audiophile experience that the first part of the test was.

Solid audio output
With the OnePlus One we were somewhat worried that audio quality might be one of the corners the company has cut to achieve its lower-than-expected price tag. The first part of our test (the one where the phone is connected to an active external amplifier strongly suggest otherwise, though.The smartphone impressed us with very high volume levels and excellent readings in every part of the test.
