Hello All,
Are the V30 and V40 really an improvement over the V20 as music player?
I wonder if it is really boost audio quality if I buy an second hand V30 or V40.

LG V30 has MQA support, which seems to have advantages and disavantages:

- V40 requires some time to adapt to new sound signature, some people said, it is better then V20,30.
Personally: V20 has replaceable battery, plays FLACs 24 bit very well, can be bought cheap, don't need more.
