Campfire Audio IO
Apr 25, 2019 at 4:57 PM Post #31 of 498
As many of you, I’m also VERY curious how this pomegranate’s Andromeda sound. Nice to see the longer nozzle! :) I’m sure these would make a tough competition if they perform such solid in price/sound ratio like the Comets do.

Big thanks to the first reviewer in advance!!! :D

Btw… what does this mention of “Refreshed with a refined body” in Andromeda’s description exactly refer to?
I will give first impressions this weekend, but I don't think my ears are experienced enough with IEMs for a detailed review. I will leave that up to the pros on here :L3000:

Hmmm, interesting. I’m just considering getting into the world of IEMs, having never owned any in the past. I was thinking about just diving in deep and getting the Meze Rai Penta, to save myself a cycle of upgrades, but new Campfire models at an affordable price have me intrigued.

$299 seems like quite a reasonable price ("reasonable" for audio nuts like us that is), that puts it directly in competition with quite a few solid IEMs (XBA N3, Etymotics ER4s, FLC 8s, etc). Extremely curious about the sound quality comparatively.

No matter how it's pronounced, I'm looking forward to giving the IO a listen.

Even the Travelocity gnome posted, never quite seen interest in IEMs like this before. More hype for the IO then Avengers Endgame??

It reminds me of this. (OK, now I know IO is one of the moons of Jupiter and it is different from the (red) comet).

I would suggest naming Campfire's next flagship "Black Hole" (and paint it in matte black), as the Campfire and ALO have been trying to absorb my money.

Just ordered the Massdrop Plus, now I’m having regrets before I even get them. Thanks Ken. *sweats in poor spending habits*

You won’t have any regrets. The MD+ are very good and competitive up to like $800.

Oh I know, I've owned them before and felt they were one of the few things in audio (that I have tried) worth their full asking price. I know I'll like them, but Campfire is such an exciting brand. Their in ears are gorgeous and they seem to be trying things other brands don't. I've owned their Orion's and felt like the mids, separation and build were way beyond their price point. I've also tried the Lyra 1's and...they're eh.
