Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova

[Ozbourn]

Really glad to see CA do the right thing by their pre-order crowd. Now I just hold my breath until the arrival.

I'm considering joining as well but the lack of impressions is holding me back. Hopefully some more impressions will start to pop up in the next couple of days.

The way the Massdrop keeps racking up, at least there should be plenty come Mid-June if nothing else! Just hoping they get half as many favourable impressions as the Andromeda - if they do, that Massdrop price may well be a steal...

I got an email that my order is complete. Three days later, no news of it when it's shipping.

That notice is a finalization of the order process rather than a shipping preview.

Question,

I use htc fx850 and mojo and I'm looking for sound that is similar but thicker. Will Nova suit what I'm looking for? What is Nova sound signature?

 

[hamhamhamsta]

Sorry, jvc 850..

Hey all!
 
I want to again thank everyone who has posted and have been into our IEMs! Now that some of the new EMs are shipping and the reviews will be coming in I thought it might be good to post some frequency response measurements first before we see a lot of variations posted by people. Without going into a long drawn out thesis / debate on measurements I just want to say that I have not seen any reviewers measurements that are accurate and it can be difficult to interpret a freq measurement. I don't use HRTF compensation curve on my measurements because I am familiar with the raw freq curve so when I see a curve I know what it sounds like and am comfortable with what I am seeing. So to state my measurement so I can be happy that this is the official freq I am posting it here now. I do not really want to get into any debates on what the freq means or read into it too much as a freq measurement is only a very small part of the over all picture of the product. I would MUCH rather listen to the IEM than read a freq.
 
In addition, I dont want to sound like I dont welcome people to also have fun and measure, but just want to say that taking a accurate measurement is tricky, also tricky to read into the measurement. I spent over $15,000 on on measurement system and it took me almost a year with professional help to calibrate and set it up 100%. So in doing so it is expensive and can be difficult to set up and calibrate. I know my set up is accurate because I send my IEMs to independent labs to double check everything.

The Andromeda has landed!

 

[ExpatinJapan]

Thanks Ken.
 
I am loving the Andromeda and taking copious notes trying to pinpoint what exactly it is that CA Andromeda does, and does so well.
 
So the Freq charts are definitely helpful, and whilst I am not technically proficient enough to interpret them correctly it does confirm a few points for me.
