The LG V20 will be the first phone with a 32 bit Quad DAC

Agree about 32Bit...

IMHO its the high impedance amp circuit and AUX line out setting that really makes the V10 a winner. Not so much the 32bit DAC processing, although technically the two go hand in hand and there's really no way to separate them. Paired with the right headphones it is noticeable.

Totally agree

LG and B&O Play Collaborate to Bring Premium Audio Experience to V20 | Korea IT Times

Looks like LG has partnered with b&o again like they did for the g5 DAC module. To me, it sounds like this will just be the sound profile for the phone when using wired headsets like HTC did with their partnership with Beats.

The big question though, will US carriers include the b&o headphones with their version of the v20? My guess is no.

No DAC module needed for great audio on the V20 thankfully. I doubt they come bundled with headsets just like the ones for the V10 were a country exclusive I believe. I think South Korea or Taiwan got them.

Looking forward to this phone's release.
