CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA 10 MARKS TEN YEARS OF INNOVATION
Campfire Audio has revealed the Campfire Audio Andromeda 10, a new flagship in-ear monitor (IEM) created to celebrate the company’s tenth anniversary.
First shown at CanJam SoCal 2025, the earphone builds on the success of the original Andromeda from 2016, a model that became one of the most recognisable names in high-end portable HiFi.
CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA 10 IEMS
The original Andromeda quickly earned a reputation for its signature green finish, distinctive design, and balanced sound. Over the past decade, Campfire Audio has produced numerous special editions and tunings, but the Campfire Audio Andromeda 10 marks the most significant technical leap yet, doubling the driver count and introducing design updates requested by the audiophile community.
The Campfire Audio Andromeda 10 continues the company’s tradition of being designed, assembled, and tested by hand in Portland, Oregon. This focus on craftsmanship has been a hallmark of the brand since its founding in 2015, with each model individually built and inspected before release.
TEN-DRIVER DESIGN IN THE CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA 10
The Campfire Audio Andromeda 10 moves from the original five-driver layout to ten custom balanced armatures. Four drivers handle the lows, four cover the midrange, and two manage the highs. This configuration is intended to deliver improved clarity, greater dynamic range, and extended frequency response for critical HiFi listening on the move.
In a first for Campfire Audio, the Andromeda 10 adopts 2-pin connectors. This update reflects direct user feedback and makes the earphone compatible with a wide range of aftermarket upgrade cables, adding flexibility for enthusiasts seeking a tailored listening setup.
SPECIAL EDITIONS OF THE CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA 10
To mark the anniversary, Campfire Audio is releasing two limited Campfire Audio Andromeda 10 Special Editions. Each features polished black PVD stainless steel housings with Damascus steel lids, available in either black or gold finishes. Limited to 250 units per version worldwide, they also include a premium 7N OCC gold-plated copper cable.
CLASSIC GREEN RETURNS WITH CAMPFIRE AUDIO ANDROMEDA 10
Alongside the Special Editions, the Campfire Audio Andromeda 10 Classic Green will be available. This version preserves the familiar anodised aluminium design that defined the original Andromeda while incorporating the new driver array and technical refinements.
