From my understanding the silver cable is already premium, and many reviewers have stated that there is no real upgrade from using aftermarket cables. Props to the ALO team for that. Dunno what the AM3 output impedance is , but it seems the andro likes io of 2-3, like zx2 or iphone. With chord mojo with almost 0, it'll be too bassy ><.

Thanks for the info.
Does balanced cable make noticable improvement to andro? Too bad andro package only comes with 3.5 but not both 2.5 and 3.5 on jupiter.

Balanced i think depends more on the source. If the source has better balanced than se then yes. For zx2 yes. For qp1r or chord mojo...no because they are single ended. Iphone no. I heard that the new silver cable is much better than the tinsel cable because it is less tangly. I wouldnt be surprised if they release a balanced version of the silver litz soon.

My review of the Andromeda has been posted - http://www.head-fi.org/products/campfire-audio-andromeda/reviews/17093
 
Simply wonderfully tuned IEM.  Impressed!

Went to try Andromeda with Effect Audio Eros II+ cable.

The space becomes so huge. The bass hit faster and harder.

Down point is its quite thick.

And a new flagship announced. Lol. Campfire Audio Vega

The Vega sounds like it'll be interesting; specifically designed dynamic driver, might compliment rather than overshadow the Andromedas considering the warmer tonality that Jude described. I'm honestly just glad Campfire isn't choosing to price their IEMs at stratospheric prices.

I think it will be a nice compliment too. I can't wait to order them.

I've also added my thoughts on the Dorado, which is amazing as well.

There is a TON of information in that video... it'll take a very long time for me to research and understand.
 
However, what I noticed right away is that instead of using fasteners to attach the two halves of the shells, it now looks glued/epoxied... This is a step backward to me from a mechanical perspective. I did also notice the housing is now smoother, which I think most people will like.

Did you enjoy the sound more than the Litz? I never thought to take off the stock cable because it is pretty good.

Hey Guys,
 
Before I go on and talk about the 3 new models I want to talk about what people consider "best" IEM and or "flagship". We at Campfire Audio really wanted to do things from a different angle than our respected competition. We want to have a healthy variety of musical perspectives to offer, not just the same old sound re hashed. In this effort we have been working hard on these dynamic driver IEMs. I have stated and still very much feel that IEM audiophiles will lean to a balanced armature camp or a dynamic driver camp and each technology will bear totally different fruits to your ear. I strongly feel this is the case with the Vega vs Andromeda vs Dorado, all 3 are in the end zone so to speak and one will be your personal "best" and or your personal "flagship". Yes the costs are all different but these reflect the cost of difficulty in making them appear

. So each of these has something uniquely awesome to that particular model to offer.
 
Thank you all for your support.

@KB: Hi Ken, will you be publishing your in house measured frequency response curves for the new IEMs?

In that case, I'd suggest putting the Dorado in its own category, so the top bar on the campfireaudio.com page reads something like
 
Dorado // Vega LyraII // Andromeda ...

Hi Ken, will you be publishing your in house measured frequency response curves for the new IEMs?

Any chance we could get some other measurements as well? Impedance curve would be nice, distortion plot would be good info also.

How much is isolation affected due to the vents versus the existing lineup?
