LFM3-Audio-2B — GGUF (by AtomicChat)

Atomic-Dynamic (AD) GGUF quants of LiquidAI/LFM3-Audio-2B: a small speech model — text + audio in, text + audio out. It runs locally in llama.cpp for both speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS), using the LFM3 audio support merged in llama.cpp #31257.

Each repo ships the LLM ladder below plus the audio projector mmproj-LFM3-Audio-2B-F16.gguf (and BF16/Q8_0) — the projector is required for any audio in or out.

Rungs (LLM)

Rung	GB on disk	bpw	top-1	mean KLD
Q8_0	1.85	8.51	97.9%	0.001
AD-Q6_K	1.59	7.31	97.2%	0.003
AD-Q5_K_M	1.31	6.03	94.8%	0.010
AD-Q4_K_M	1.13	5.20	91.6%	0.028
AD-IQ4_XS	1.09	5.02	90.9%	0.034
AD-IQ3_S	0.92	4.23	86.6%	0.075
AD-IQ3_XXS	0.81	3.71	80.5%	0.171

AD-Q4_K_M is the recommended default; AD-IQ3_XXS is the smallest. The AD rungs replace llama.cpp's stock presets (no imatrix) at every size.

top-1 = how often a rung picks the same next token as the original BF16; mean KLD = average divergence (lower is better).

Speech-to-text (ASR)

llama-mtmd-cli -hf AtomicChat/LFM3-Audio-2B-GGUF:AD-Q4_K_M \
  --mmproj mmproj-LFM3-Audio-2B-F16.gguf \
  --audio speech.wav -sys "Perform ASR in English." -p "<__media__>" --temp 0

Text-to-speech (TTS)

llama-tts -m LFM3-Audio-2B-AD-Q4_K_M.gguf -mm mmproj-LFM3-Audio-2B-F16.gguf \
  -p "Hello world" --tts-voice male -o out.wav

--tts-lang <code> sets the language (default en); --tts-voice is female (default) or male.

Needs a llama.cpp build with LFM3-Audio support (merged in #31257; these files were produced at llama.cpp 19ff817).
