Hi, just hoping to know what the community has settled on as the best chifi IEM like the andromeda when you don’t have $1000 to spend.

Might be worth keeping an eye out for black friday deals? Alowarehouse might be worth keeping an eye on as well (part of campfire as well).Hi, just hoping to know what the community has settled on as the best chifi IEM like the andromeda when you don’t have $1000 to spend.
There are a couple of major factors here to consider. First, the Andro is an open chamber design, which is pretty unusual in ChiFi, so unusual I can't think of a single example. Same with the crossover network- to my knowledge the Andro doesn't use crossovers.I would like as close to the andromeda sound signature as possible for the least price (like basically everyone). I assume that chifi is the way to go here, with someone figuring out which company uses the same drivers, etc.
Then instead of chasing the rainbow, perhaps save your hard earned and buy what you really want when you can comfortably afford it instead of the next best thing? Could be more satisfying that way anyway. As said before black friday is coming up so no idea what offers Campfire will do (or for that matter alowarehouse deals which is part of the campfire brand). That or keep an eye on the fs boards here if you don't mind second hand.Ok so would I be correct in assuming there is nothing else on the chifi market that sounds like the andromeda but the andromeda because of its fundamental design. Closest being the audiosense t800? The reason I asked the question is because the andromeda is the best I have ever heard, like ever and I can’t imagine needing anything more than that.
Is it even possible to want something else after hearing the andromeda? Do people ever go from the andromeda to the audiosense t800 for example?
For me it wasn’t other than a little more bass. The Andromedas are magical!

After hearing the awesome Andromeda, I also wanted a bit more bass. Campfire's answer is the Andromeda Gold, which is currently out of stock. T800 is pretty close to it tuning-wise. Andromeda Gold still has a tad more detail everywhere.Is it even possible to want something else after hearing the andromeda? Do people ever sidegrade from the andromeda, and if so which IEM?
