Thank you for the comments.
Have you heard Vega or LyraII? Wonder how the low end compares on Jupiter?

Does burn-in benefit a all BA IEM? I thought it most helped the dynamic drivers?

TIA

I have both the Jupiter and the Lyra II, and the Jupiter's bass though deep, does not hold a candle to the texture, timbre, impact and decay of the Lyra II. With that said, I prefer dynamic driver bass over BA bass, and its likely the Jupiter might have a more "accurate" and quick sounding bass, if that's your taste.
 
The whole idea of burn in is to flex stiff dynamic drivers straight out the factory, I don't believe it affects BA iems,

Yes, I'm hoping burn-in will have a greater effect on Dorado. I'd like those vocals clearer and more detaild. I'm not sure that's going to happen, though.

If I might ask which do you end up listening to more Jupiter or LyraII?
I really like Lyra II and prefer it with my spiral dots but the buildup of pressure at times has forced me to go back to the Comply comfortable

Jupiter I feel is technically superior in terms of things like treble extension, detail retrieval, soundstage, etc but Lyra to me is more enjoyable of a listen.  I don't have any pressure buildup issues with the Lyra, but the small form factor of the Lyra to me is more comfortable to wear anyways.  I use spinfits with the Lyra and spiral dots on the Jupiter.  I believe that the somewhat deeper insertion depth of the Lyra with spiral dots contributes to the issues you're experiencing but I may be wrong.

The Spiral dot seems to create a better seal which is contributing to the pressure issue, at times. The spiral dot works really nicely on the all the frequency ranges with LyraII due to the wider bore, enhancing and improving soundstage and treble extension while maintaining an amazing low end.
I do get more driver flex with spiral dots on insertion as well

I contacted campfire about the driver flex and they said that due to being a sealed design driver flex is expected but i shouldn't worry about it because the air pushed isn't enough to damage the driver.

Thx. I think I saw a post by Ken Ball saying the same thing

same reply from Ken! was worried about the "plock plock" sound on the left driver and inquired about it to Ken and got the same answer! so far so good!
Great piece of iem! Love them more than the andros...

Yea I heard the flexing too, actually sounds pretty scary lol like for sure something is getting damaged.. glad you guys found out that it's ok. The el8 headphone is known for that too.

Just got these today I got to say this is one of the most if not the most engaging iem I think I ever heard, my laylas almost sound boring compared to the visceral power of these babies.

Which one?

To me it sounds like the Vega haha

Just picked up the Vegas at AXPONA. Listened to the Lyra, Andro and Dorado as well, but these really stood out for me. Head and shoulders more enjoyable for my preferences (which = dynamics and bass; soundstage isn't a biggie for me, and while that is good for the Vegas, the Andro is king there). 
 
Wow, I thought my 846s did great bass. Compared to the 846s, the Vega bass has a) greater impact b) more texture and c) seems to go deeper. Bass on the Vega also put the other Campfire audio models to shame. Yes, some of this is probably due to a bass boost, but this also feels qualitatively different, not just a matter of a dB boost. 
 
 
Damn I am loving these.

what is your music preference's?

I'm all over the place. So far, I've listened to hip-hop, ambient, country, metal and some straightforward rock-n-roll. All sound great!
