    Wow, some of the top tier IEMs from Campfire Audio!! I have tried the OG Solaris, quite bright but very rich bass and quality imaging. Thanks for your impressions of the 2020 Solaris.

    I haven’t heard the Solaris unfortunately, but Andromeda always had this really special tuning to it that is hard to describe in words until you hear it. Oddly I found my 2020 version had more mid-bass than the 2019 version at least a non-burned in version of each.

    Which portable DAC/AMP do you recommend for the Solaris 2020 so it can reveal the full potential of these IEMs with a dead silent background? I mostly listen to Electronic and Alternative Rock music. Thanks in advance.
