It wasn't so much audio issues with the V20, it was notifications in general and using a cellphone. Though, I do find that it can't compare with the Mojo or Fiio (and it probably shouldn't). It has more "bloated" bass. The mids are nice but less refined and I feel sometimes the Highs are "trying" too hard and can get shrill (but a lot of that could be the headphones). Once I went to the Mojo... I basically stopped using the V20 as an audio device in general. Though, as a phone... it does sound really good.
I personally own fiio-x5 iii and V20 together ..and v20 is far from having bloated bass(its such a mis interpretation that i would go so far as to say one probably never had a proper hands on with V20 )..its sits on the opposite side of having anything 'bloated'
E.g Akg k240 headphone quite known for its weak low-feq output ,still sounds solid and punchy via V20 .
Hence , unless u used some personally modded equipment ...like VE Monk plus modded ..its REALLY difficult to imagine V20 having bloated output..
And yeah ..another point ..per my view..
V20 produces much more "neutral" "flat"
(MOST people make mistake amping left and right channel to max creating more n more V shaped response ..those need to be kept at zero unless required , for flatness) "authentic" sound signature across headphones and sources than Mojo ..And the
Amp capacity of V20 is equivalent to mojo (32mw@600ohm).
I guess there is nothing wrong that you see V20 differently ...but maybe you didnt look hard enough or didnt want/need to...
Coz even if I am wrong ...10 other people cant possibly be wrong together..
