Campfire Audio, known for its premium in-ear monitors (IEMs), has introduced its latest creation, the Moon Rover Limited Edition earphones. This release continues the company’s tradition of blending striking design with high-end audio performance. Limited to just 888 units worldwide, the Moon Rover IEMs offer a unique and exclusive addition to the audiophile market.
Campfire Audio has a reputation for producing high-quality in-ear monitors with distinctive designs, such as Solaris Stellar Horizon or Fathom, and the Moon Rover appears to be no exception. The Moon Rover IEMs earphones are hand-assembled by a dedicated team at Campfire Audio’s Portland factory.
Each unit is encased in flame-treated, aircraft-grade titanium shells, producing an iridescent finish that changes from blue to purple to yellow depending on the light.
According to the company, this unique color gradient is achieved through a meticulous heat treatment process, giving each pair of earphones a distinct and organic texture. The design also includes a PVD steel spout and gold-plated screws, further enhancing the aesthetic appeal.
The Moon Rover IEMs earphones are touted for their neutral and analytical sound signature. They are equipped with 12mm magnetic planar dynamic drivers, which are known for their rapid impulse response and accuracy.
Campfire Audio claims these drivers provide detailed sound reproduction with a balanced response across the frequency spectrum. The earphones offer a wide frequency response range from 5Hz to 20kHz, an impedance of 22.5Ω at 1 kHz, and less than 1% total harmonic distortion, ensuring high-fidelity sound quality.
Technical Specifications:
The planar drivers in the Moon Rover IEMs earphones allow for a more even distribution of sound across the diaphragm, resulting in improved driver movement and sound accuracy. This feature is particularly beneficial for audiophiles seeking a high level of detail and clarity in their audio experience.
Each pair of Moon Rover IEMs earphones comes with a hand-crafted waxed leather case, adding a touch of luxury to the overall ownership experience. The package also includes a Super Smoky Litz 3.5mm cable and a selection of foam and silicone ear tips in small, medium, and large sizes.
Additionally, the earphones come with a lapel pin and a microfibre cleaning cloth, highlighting the brand’s attention to detail and user experience.
The Campfire Audio Moon Rover earphones are priced at $1,199 / £1,199. Given the limited production run of 888 units, these earphones are expected to attract a lot of interest from audiophiles and collectors alike. They are available for purchase through Campfire Audio’s website and selected retailers, such as Amazon.
