Neodymium rare earth magnets, the strongest type of permanent magnet commercially available are utilized in the Vega’s dynamic driver.

PVD Finish
Covering the Liquid Alloy Metal shell is a ‘Clear Sky’ PVD finish that provides distinction and beauty to the Vega.

Integrating a custom 8.5mm non-crystalline Diamond transducer into a Liquid Alloy Metal enclosure is a powerful combination. The synergy here is pretty spectacular.

The Vega flawlessly conveys recorded sound–sparkling high frequency extension, slightly forward and engaging mids, and deep, powerful bass response. A sound, free from grain and harshness.

World’s First
Non-Crystalline Diamond Dynamic Driver
Campfire Audio is proud to be the first company to use a revolutionary breakthrough speaker technology implemented exclusively for in-ear monitors, a non-crystalline diamond dynamic driver.

Our 8.5mm driver is just 9um thick and coated with our revolutionary ADLC non-crystalline diamond-carbon material. The Vega use of ADLC delivers stunning clarity, advanced micro detail, and dynamics.

Expertly Crafted

Custom MMCX
Our custom Beryllium Copper MMCX eliminates the traditional shortcomings of the connection and harnesses all of its benefits.

Beryllium Copper provides a robust mating mechanism; one that is typcially made from soft brass. This selection of a harder material extends the life of component and the earphone.

It makes replacing or upgrading your earphone cable care free because you know this will not wear out the mating pins.

The housing to every earphone plays an important part in shaping the sound that is delivered.

Selecting the right material for an earphone’s housing can be as important as selecting the proper driver because of the significant role it plays in the final sound of the earphone.
