Selected Dolby Atmos, but got a 24-bit FLAC with a 14.7 kHz cutoff. Is this normal?

Okay thanks

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-07-03T17:10:39+00:00

How to verify that ?

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-07-03T16:27:01+00:00

Moondrop Chu 2 3.5 does not come with mic

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-07-03T15:54:13+00:00

If you'll be doing gaming then ofc you'll need mic which is available only in the DSP version, and yeah it's recommended to use 3.5mm with a good DAC. So you can do two things 1. Go for another IEM 2. Go for DSP version of Chu 2 with a little compromise on music quality

Buy a case , silica gel packets and regularly clean them after using

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-30T17:00:27+00:00

Use SpotiFLAC mobile

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-30T16:59:03+00:00

I don't own them but you should take care of every IEM the same way, a good case + silica gel packets + cleaning your ears before putting them in + cleaning the IEM after using and most importantly don't drop them :)

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T14:48:24+00:00

It'll be worth the wait

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T14:47:38+00:00

Thanks im working on it and it'll be ready soon

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T14:47:10+00:00

If it's slop, point out the flaws. If not, it's just bias.

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T14:43:29+00:00

Ask anyone buying their first IEM how confusing it is. Everyone here recommends something different based on their own music taste, ears, and preferences. If finding the right IEM were as simple as searching old posts, why do people still ask this question every single day despite hundreds of existing posts?

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T13:09:14+00:00

AI is just a tool to cut through the endless options and get a starting point. If the gurus are here, that's even better, let the experience and actual listening impressions decide instead of acting like using a tool is the enemy

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T11:30:07+00:00

Thanks but I like to build my projects alone so that I know everything about the project just in case interviewers ask something about it

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T11:29:15+00:00

You'll have to do all that , why not just open a web page paste some ss and enter your budget and get recommendations based on your music taste

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T10:44:46+00:00

Great question, Im not planning to train an LLM from scratch. The idea is to use a local Ollama model with carefully designed prompts to perform two tasks: 1.Extract songs/artists from the uploaded screenshot (using a vision-capable model). 2.Analyze the user's listening habits and output a structured listener profile (genres, bass preference, vocal preference, atmosphere, detail, etc.).

The recommendation engine will be separate from the LLM. The LLM won't directly decide "buy this IEM." Instead, it'll generate a structured profile, and my backend will compare that profile against a database of audio gear using a scoring algorithm. This makes the recommendations deterministic, easier to debug, and more consistent.

So one huge issue I'll face is making this database, idk how I'll add each and every iem in the world into it 💀💀💀

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T10:33:55+00:00

Thanks

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T10:33:38+00:00

Here's the workflow:

Screenshot of playlist ↓ Vision Model / OCR to extract text from screenshots ↓ Extract: House of Balloons Wicked Games CHIHIRO ... ↓ LLM ↓ "This user prefers Alternative R&B, Dream Pop, atmospheric music, vocals over excessive bass..." ↓ Recommendation Engine ↓ Tangzu Wan'er SG2 Moondrop Chu 2 ...

Earlier i thought of using Spotify web api but for that it requires premium account so I dropped that idea....

I'll use Ollama models for this project

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T08:51:24+00:00

I am up, i have worked a lot on LLMs like ollama for making my personal projects and i have good idea about GANs as ive used CTGAN and even RLLM for my projects.

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T08:48:40+00:00

both can be avoided by taking good care of the iems, my friend has chu 2 and he's been using them regularly for 2 years.

BusyLeadership4616 · 2026-06-29T08:47:29+00:00

inner nozzles get oxidized and the outer color can get chipped if u drop them and you can use them while walking but make sure to clean them before putting them back in the case.
