viaim has teamed up with the China Philharmonic Orchestra to create a new audio tuning called Philharmonic Signature Sound, designed to bring the depth and warmth of live symphonic music into AI-enabled earbuds. Unveiled at a launch event in Beijing’s Langyuan Station, the collaboration saw orchestra members perform Liszt’s Hungarian Dance as engineers fine-tuned viaim’s sound engine to capture every tonal nuance, spatial dynamic and human warmth of a concert hall.

Rather than chasing louder or thinner sound, viaim co-founder Liu Da says the goal was to “give technology a soul.” The Philharmonic Signature Sound was developed through multiple phases—working directly with musicians on driver materials, acoustic cavities and tuning curves—to ensure a faithful translation of orchestral richness across all audio, from classical recordings to voice calls.

viaim CEO Shawn Ma emphasizes that true fidelity starts with emotional impact, not just specs, while China Philharmonic president Li Nan notes that this partnership breaks down the barrier between concert halls and everyday listening. The Philharmonic Signature Sound will debut in viaim’s AI-powered earbud line, slated to launch in the third quarter of 2025, promising a new standard for wearable audio that sings with lifelike expression.
