As the title states, Campfire Audios Caleb Rosenau has sat down with Omar once more to broaden his musical horizons.

“As part of Omars IEM journey Caleb suggested it was a good idea to have a listen to their highest end products. It didn’t take a lot of convincing for me. Brew a cup and join Omar and Caleb for a chat about high-end IEMs. What goes in to making them and what kind of audio experience can you expect for a £1500 IEM.”

Without further ado, the whole podcast can be listened to via Spotify here.

Oscar and John have obviously also spent some time with many Campfire Audio models. You can read Johns review of the Andromeda here and Oscars of the Solaris here. If videos are more your thing then we also have you covered! We have video reviews of all models on our youtube channel here.

Campfire Audio, the Portland, Oregon based boutique headphone and earphone specialist, has announced their new releases for spring 2020 – the newly updated Solaris 2020 and Andromeda 2020, and the brand-new Ara 7-driver earphone.

As part of the product launch, Campfire Audio has updated two of their most popular earphone models – Andromeda and Solaris.

Campfire Audio Andromeda 2020 – £1099 – $1099

The new Andromeda 2020 has been updated with the new solid-body internal acoustic chamber, which has been designed to enhance the sound of the classic Andromeda with more detail retrieval and improved vocal presence.

Included with the Andromeda 2020 is the new cork zipper case in Green – hand made in Portugal.

Campfire Audio Solaris 2020 – £1499 – $1499

The new Solaris 2020 will be 20% smaller than the original version, with a new all black finish and a new solid-body internal acoustic chamber design – 3D printed to provide more controlled tuning and even more reliability.

There are also new updates to the included accessories, with a new ‘Super Smokey Litz’ silver plated copper cable fitted with moulded ear hooks (no memory wire), and a new sustainably harvested cork zipper case in Brown – hand made in Portugal.

Commenting on the new updates, Caleb Rosenau, Campfire Audio’s VP said: “This is our first significant refresh of Andromeda and Solaris since their original product launch. Both models are appreciable improvements upon their predecessors, and we think people will enjoy the changes we’ve made to them.”

Campfire Audio Ara – £1299 – $1299

A brand-new addition to Campfire Audio’s range has also been announced – the Ara.
The new Ara uses titanium shells which house seven balanced armature drivers inside each earphone, with dual high, single mid and quad low drivers arranged inside the new solid-body internal acoustic chamber design. Campfire Audio’s most ambitious release to date.

Commenting on the Ara, Caleb Rosenau added: “Ara is a new design with seven drivers that has a very resolving and appealing sound signature for the audiophile.”
