Campfire Audio Ponderosa Universal Deluxe, Black

Full Description

The perfect balance - Phase Harmony Engineering

The Campfire Audio Ponderosa Universal Deluxe takes a thoughtful approach to driver treatment with their Phase Harmony Engineering. Unlike the competition that focuses on cramming as many drivers as possible into an earphone, Campfire Audio prioritizes quality over quantity. By segmenting the frequency spectrum and assigning each segment to specific drivers, the Ponderosa allows each driver to excel in its dedicated area.

But that's not all. With precision-engineered driver housings, custom damping values, and shell geometry, Campfire Audio is able to physically shape the tuning and response of the drivers, as well as their interaction with one another. The result is exceptional imaging, separation, resolution, and soundstage that can't be captured by a simple frequency response curve.

Unique, expansive sound with patented T.A.E.C. technology

Utilising their unique patented driver treatment technology (known as T.A.E.C.), Cranborne Audio are changing the game with their attention to detail and cutting-edge tech. T.A.E.C. utilizes a unique space within the earphone to house a balanced armature, allowing for the emphasis or de-emphasis of specific frequency bands.

This level of control enables ultra-fine tuning, resulting in an incredibly precise and detailed high-frequency response. In the case of the Ponderosa, T.A.E.C. is applied to the dual-high driver assembly, ensuring a seamless interaction between the precision-tuned high-end and the rest of the frequency range. The end result is an expansive sound that captivates the listener with its clarity and accuracy.

Solid build for a long lifespan

Campfire Audio's patented Solid Body Design is not only visually striking but also practical and effective. The Ponderosa features a single, precisely 3D printed "engine block" that houses the drivers and directs the sound towards the listener. This design not only enhances the overall listening experience but also improves the earphone's structural integrity. Unlike other forms of driver routing, the Solid Body Design eliminates variables and points of failure, ensuring a reliable and long-lasting product. With the Ponderosa, you can enjoy your music with peace of mind, knowing that the craftsmanship behind this earphone guarantees both exceptional sound and durability.
