With more people creating music than ever before, and with stages and performances spaces reopening around the world, Campfire Audio thinks this is the perfect time for music creators to make a modest investment on new IEMs. The company that started by testing very expensive and exotic materials in its original IEMs for music enthusiasts, now designed a completely new type of products.
The Campfire Satsuma ($199) is tuned for guitarists, vocalists, keyboardists, producer / engineers, while the Honeydew ($249), is better suited for electronic musicians, DJs, drummers and bass players (more bass response). Both models are made in the USA using rugged ABS that can withstand both the rigors of the road and the studio. Also, since they both feature a colorful, robust encasing, it will always be easy to spot on a dark stage or among piles of studio gear.
Among the main things that make these IEMs unique there is a patented 3D printed acoustic chamber to precisely control acoustic frequency response. Both units also use a single full-range driver, a balanced armature in the Satsuma model, and a dynamic driver in the Honeydew design. They obviously also ship with a soft-lined pouch, and ultra-high quality cabling with custom beryllium / copper MMCX connections, which means these IEMs will not fail when they are needed.
The "orange fizz" colored Satsuma features a similar aesthetic presentation to Campfire Audio’s higher-end range of products. The patent-pending 3D printed acoustic chamber design helps to optimize the frequency response curve of the unit’s full-range balanced armature driver.
The ‘mellow yellow’ colored Honeydew — which also features Campfire Audio’s patented 3D printed acoustic chamber — was designed for a seamless translation and representation of the lower frequency spectrum and uses a custom-built 10mm LCP diaphragm dynamic driver.
“The clarity and spatial accuracy of Satsuma makes it ideal both as a studio monitor or as an everyday listening device,” comments Caleb Rosenau, Vice President of Campfire Audio. “Both Satsuma and Honeydew feature design elements and acoustic features that are derived from the same DNA as our more expensive premium models. So whether you need them in a critical listening application in the studio or on stage, or if you just want highly detailed audio performance in your everyday carry, these models have you covered.”
“Our all-new ABS body style design meets the demands of the professional musician,” adds Rosenau. “It provides a lightweight, protective enclosure. Further, the unmistakable colors and an unmatched combination of weight and strength of ABS make it the perfect selection for demanding conditions. Easy to spot and hard to break means you’ll have your earphone working and within reach more often."
Both Satsuma and Honeydew are available now at the Campfire Audio web shop and through its network of authorized dealers around the world.
