Andromeda ‘Emerald Sea’
Initially launched in 2016, Andromeda is the IEM that put Campfire Audio on the map. ‘Emerald Sea’ updates the iconic model with a smaller, more ergonomic take on the classic green machined aluminum shell for a more comfortable fit.
The new shell houses five custom dual-diaphragm balanced armatures and reimagined internal acoustic geometry for a different take on the versatile and organic sounding Andromeda profile with expanded acoustic range and lower distortion. ‘Emerald Sea’ also adds new flair to the Andromeda design with stainless steel fasteners and MMCX capture.

Solaris ‘Stellar Horizon’
‘Stellar Horizon’ is an evolution of everything that made the original Solaris great, with savvy upgrades that bring its fit, finish, and feel to a new level. Key to the new Solaris experience is three custom dual diaphragm balanced armatures that build off the original’s energetic sound profile but add more output and high-extension with less distortion.
This, coupled with Campfire’s Radial Venting surrounding the 10mm ADLC dynamic driver, creates a great soundstage and even more dynamic driver performance than the original.
All of this is wrapped in an elegant and durable precision machined, brushed stainless steel housing accented by brass fasteners and MMXX capture with custom gold PVD inlays for a smooth, striking look.
