Nexus 5 Sound Quality?

[Coldheart29]

Hey guys, found this thread while searching fore some info, so i thought i'd post here instead of starting a new thread.

I've ordered some sony xba-h1, and now something has struck my mind: i've always used budget iems with low impedances(in the sub 24 ohms range) with my nexus 5. Now the xba-h1 are 40ohms. Will the n5 be able to drive them without troubles, or will i need an amp to use the new iems at their full potential?

Just bought this phone and to be honest, against all my previous reasoning, I was actually very pleasantly surprised by both it'soutput power and SQ ( especially stereo crosstalk which is virtually inexistant). This phone powers JVC S500s just brilliantly.
