Campfire Audio has announced the next-generation version of its Axion in-ear headphones. Aimed at users who want Campfire's big-money designs but at a more affordable rate, the entry-level Axion don't have the whopping price tag of their stylish contemporaries such as the Fathom (£1049 / $1049) or Andromeda (£1049 / $1090) in-ears.
The new headphones feature an all-new full-range silicon dynamic driver which seeks to combine the compact footprint of a balanced-armature driver with the "rich sonic properties" of a balanced unit. The new in-ears also incorporate enhanced tuning and an integrated 32bit/384 kHz DAC chip in a bid to bring improved sonic performance to a more democratised price point.
