a bit late, but here is my take on Jupiter: http://www.head-fi.org/products/campfire-audio-jupiter/reviews/17201

It's kind of interesting to note that the Jupiter and Lyra were getting pretty much 100% of the attention before this tour began. Now it seems like the Orion has stolen some of the thunder and people are realizing how good it really is.

Since about 2 years have passed since my last post on this thread, I have owned all of the CA phones except the Dorado and the new Polaris. I have since sold them all and re-purchased the Orion, which remains one of my favorite IEM's. As my musical preferences center around acoustic, vocals and classical genre's, it is hard to imagine a better sounding phone than the Orion. My current Orion configuration is with Spinfit tips and balanced copper cable from Plus Sound.

Indeed.
When I did the initial review of Lyra, Orion and Jupiter I found my favourite to be the Orion.

Since then I have heard and prefer the Andromeda, however the Orion is absolutely fantastic.

whoa I'm thinking of getting the Onion!
Orion seems like an epic side pistol for Andromeda. I can take it anywhere I wouldn't want to carry Andromeda around.

Glad this thread is still active,

Just grabbed some jupiters at a good price with the tinsel cable.

I have read all the reviews and they seem to be all over the place, my question is; could this be due to the litz cable variation?

E.g, some say they are intimate some say holographic and huge soundstage, some say smooth and yet others say sibilant,

almost every factor is subjective.

really looking forward to triing a campfire iem for the first time my source is an ak jnr so it has no balanced out, one other thing is that there are no comparisons with the balanced cable which i find strange because it is included in the box.

thank you all for your reviews . very good material

With iems there are so many factors.
Tip rolling and seal can affect the sound greatly.
Cable could with these iems given how sensitive they are.
Personal preference also comes in to play.

I had mixed feelings when it come to the Jupiter, however not for a second did I think it was bad. I just thought it was a little bit of a disconnect from the music for me.
Between playing with cables and tips I am sure you will be very happy with them!
Congratulations on your new acquisition

I can say the same about my last iem

 

[damobananna]

maybe im old school but I ,kinda hope they slow down down abit because in another 10 years there will be alot of CA ghosts floating around

How do orions sound for metal/rock and trance?

 

[damobananna]

just chiming in for a sec
anyone try and flip the lyra's left and right?
Is way better comfort and isolation = better sound for me.
flipped


normal

you have the iem tilted to far up same as what i see in every pic of people wearing campfire iems, the logo is meant to be up and down with the cable pointing forward.
