On this forum in the recent past, I've criticised the floppy leather magnetic folding wallet that came with my Fathoms. It's pretty user-hostile IMO and - while it's undeniably great quality - whoever came up with it as a form factor for protecting £1000 IEMs wants shooting. I asked the forum for recommended alternatives and got a bunch of useful pointers to third party options. While searching, I came across Campfire Market, where for the princely sum of USD37 I found the dark leather faux-sheepskin-lined clamshell case you see here. It's awesome and cost a fraction of some other options I was considering. Given it's not on the main CA website as an accessory for sale, I can only assume it's been discontinued. If I were you, CA, I'd bring it back pronto. PS - any suggestions as to what a spare floppy leather magnetic wallet could be used for?

The seller really wants to buy another IEM badly so he is fire selling it and says the Tri does not fit his ears well. Its a $3k+ IEM. The damn Fourte cost me 1700 shipped and that has been out since 2016. Lives 2.5 hours from me too.

Is this the amber radiance?

Does anyone have any experience with the Vega 2020 and cables? I just bought a Vega but they don't come with the regular cable so was wondering if anyone have suggestions where to start?

The Vega 2020 goes really well with the campfire audio Pure silver cable that comes stock with the Atlas. It just so happens they have some on the campfire audio marketplace at the moment with 15% off

Hi all.
I’m looking for an advice. I’m fairly new to the IEMs world; I recently bought and AK SR35 and currently enjoying it with AK t9ie. Out of curiosity I tried the Aful Performer 5, but didn’t like at all; long story short I keep on reading about campfire IEMs and got intrigued.

Really would like to try something from them, but I’m a little lost between all new and old models. Lately I’ve read dozens of reviews but still haven’t made up my mind. Useless to say here in Italy it’s extremely hard to try them.

I listen to everything, lot of classic rock, progressive, indie, shoegaze, but also jazz and some electronic. I’m not a big bass head, I’m not looking for powerful bass and I don’t like too much treble.

I’m looking for something balanced, with a good clarity and detail, preferably warm but not too dark or muddy.

Which model should I look at, even old ones used.
Thanks fr your help!

Fathom seems like what you're looking for

 

[mattclarke18]

Personally I prefer pelican cases but hey whatever works for you.

+1 They are under $20 on Amazon

+1 for fathom. My tastes are similar to yours and I’ve been very happy with mine. They are very sensitive so pick your source carefully but you won’t go far wrong with them as your first foray into CA.

Yeah but they are not beautiful.

Effect audio ares II cable

So the Ares II is preferable to the Ares S?

I'm usually not a Silver guy when it comes to regular audio with speakers etc, but I'm def. open to try. The Atlas seems to have similar freq signature to the Vega, the other seems to be Polaris 2.

 

[Pabsu]

You can buy whichever is cheapest but you can't go wrong with either of them

 

[Pabsu]

Also I am selling my Polaris 2 if anyone is interested

These are pretty convenient cases, quite good when the IEMs are stored in their mesh pouch .. it would be good to bring them back (at least as an option, I did buy a few from CFA Market a while ago when realized that this model was being phased out)!
Alternatively Aliexpress / Amazon have a lot of alternatives to choose from ..
