Neither Claude Sonet 3.5 or 3.7 could solve this correctly unless you add to the prompt “ Prove it with the js analysis tool, please use an efficient combinatorial algorithm to find the solution”… and I had to correct 3.7 because it was not following the instructions as 3.5 did

I don't know what in my comment made you assume I use an EQ.

As a first-time Hi-Fi headphone buyer, the reviews on Amazon and Youtube didn't surface the nuances of the different headphone models using quantitative information as DIY-Audio-Heaven does.

After purchasing the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, I discovered the Superlux HD 662 EVO on this website and decided to buy them for $38 to see how they would compare. I was pleasantly surprised by the significant difference in quality, considering the Superlux headphones were almost five times cheaper. This experience led me to return the Beyerdynamic headphones and approach overpriced headphone reviews with more skepticism.

Given the recent discussions about hi-fi headphone misleading marketing https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36377875, and how hard it is to quantify quality, I found this resource a while ago and loved how they tear them apart and fixed the shortcomings of $40 headphones with simple hacks like adding a coffee filter on the cup to make them sound better than $500 models
