Here’s something you won’t find on our list of the best earbuds but you may be interested in if you’re deep into the music space or play music yourself. They’re Campfire Audio’s Supermoon IEMs. An IEM is a type of earbud (though some may argue it is its own, separate device) that sit directly in your ear canal (IEM stands for In-Ear Monitors) and provide a “pure” sound free of post-processing. They’re typically used for live audio feedback by musicians but are also appreciate by audiophiles for their extreme quality.
Of course, with that great sound quality, they can be very expensive The Ultimate Ears Premier are $2,999, for example. But sometimes you can get a very expensive pair of IEMs at a discount. Right now the Campfire Audio Supermoon are marked down from $1,099 (they used to be $1,500) to $899, a savings of $200. These are premium IEM earbuds, no matter how you look at it and, if you’re in the audiophile world, they’re a possible pickup for you.
BUY NOWWhy you should buy the Campfire Audio Supermoon
The Supermoon are 14mm planar magnetic IEMs that combine solid bass and technical details on the high-end of the spectrum. They have a wide 5Hz to 20kHz frequency response and produce less than 1% total harmonic distortion. They come in a cool shiny black or a color that I can’t help but call, as a native of the state, a “Tennessee” orange. In our large IEM shootout they were featured as an example of what the very top of the line of IEMs can get you — earbuds that fit perfectly in your ear because they were built for your very ear, an “undeniably smooth and precise sound signature,” and a listening experience that gives noticeably more even at the hard to improve upon midtone level. The rub was that they were $1,500 at that time. Today, they’re considerably more affordable.
The Campfire Audio Supermoon are down to $899 for a limited time, $200 off of their usual price of $1,099. They aren’t the usual fare around here, but they can bring something new to your music experience if you need something extra. If they aren’t your style, however, you should check out Campfire Audio’s new Axion earbuds that are also designed to provide a premium listening experience, though at a more universally approachable price.
