Campfire Audio Andromeda in-ear Headphones - Official Thread

Thank you for pointing this out - I’ve also been wondering about macro-dynamics. Out of my AK Jr the Andro 2020 sounds quite polite and gentle, having no real slam or punchiness. There’s a slight softness to the sound. Perhaps there isn’t the attack or sharpness to the leading edges of notes? I’m not sure. I’ll need to listen more carefully.

I suspect the lack of dynamics may also have something to do with the source. I’ve noticed more energy and excitement out of a Magni 3 (on low gain, obviously) and the Fulla 2 - be very, very careful with the volume pot!!! But the Andro 2020 is still soft out of these amps.

I’d been assuming the lack of dynamics might have owed something to coming from the Focal Clear, which have been my go-to over-ear headphone for the past few months. The Clear’s something of a macrodynamic monster, after all.
