Impedeance isn't an absolute number when it comes to speakers/headphones, but varies depending upon what is being sent to them.

My V40 even consistantly puts the Massdrop HE-4xx in high-impedance mode--and they are only 30ohms. Certainly not complaining...

Ran across this interesting article specific to the "added" V40 sound options I though you guy may like...

Is Hifi Status app working properly?

Good point...thx. It seems to be accurate since those headphones sound about the same level as the V30 using the trick fix to high-impedance...but i'll try some old crappy walkman ones I know would be nowhere near 50ohm to check on that.

Does anyone actually owns the V409N?
Does it have FM radio? Blooatware?
Thank you !

I own a US unlocked version of the V40 and it does have FM radio. It has 15 or so LG apps some that duplicate google apps, like a calendar, music player, etc. and some that are unique, like a fitness app. But in terms of bloatware it's not even close to what you'd get from a a US carrier.

I just don't understand the power difference , I can eq it good enough for my liking but the power is ridiculous

Maybe, you might want to use impedance jack separately. I have never used LG yet, but I'm thinking about it, but I think that it doesnt give you enough volume with low impedance headphone. It requires minimum of 50ohms.

RIP buddy
So happy I was able to see him live twice

Purchased mine the other day.
I prefer the sound signature over the V30
Volume is much louder on the V40.
I am running the Andromeda"a with the V40.
Beautiful sound.

How is the v40 / Andromeda pairing doing for you? I have a v40 on the way and have been looking at Campfire IEMs as an upgrade from my current SE535s. I'm a bit overwhelmed by the number of available models, but the Andromedas are high on the list.

Hi,
I will tell you this, I have owned plenty of higher end iem’s.
The Andromeda’s were very good with the V40.
If you can spare a few extra $$$ go for the Solaris. The hype is real.
Incredible combo

Much appreciated! The Andromedas will already be a pretty significant stretch for me, especially considering I have no experience with CA IEMs to date. The most expensive IEMs that I've purchased to date are my SE535s, but part of the reason I bought the v40 is for a big step up (without having to carry a discrete mobile DAC / headamp) and it sounds like the v40 + Andromeda pairing will be just the big step up that I'm seeking.

Looks like Tidal.

The Hi-Fi amp is working properly. For whatever reason, the Massdrop 4XX (planar) headphones @ 35ohm are always put in high impedance mode (UNLIKE the HEXv2)--and all of the sudden are a very good inexpensive match for this phone.

 

[mattmc1228]

What music player are you using?

I am running the Campfire Audio Solaris straight out of the V40.
Love this combo..
