Campfire Audio Clara Ti is the Titanium Launch Edition of Clara—limited to 50 units—with a 3D-printed titanium shell and an included 8-wire 4.4 mm cable; it retains the same sonic profile as the standard Clara co-designed with Alessandro Cortini. At an MSRP of $2,999 for the Ti edition (vs. $1,999 for the base model), it sits firmly in the top-of-the-line price tier.
The driver array is 1DD+3BA: a dual-magnet dynamic for lows, a dual-diaphragm BA for mids, and two BA super-tweeters, yielding a neutral-with-bass-boost presentation intended to be smooth rather than sharp. Independent reviews characterize the tuning as warmly balanced with impactful but controlled sub-bass and clear upper-mids/treble that avoid fatigue.
On performance, Clara Ti delivers punchy dynamics, strong detail retrieval, and stable imaging; stage size reads more precise than panoramic, but placement is clean and coherent. Given its price, the value proposition hinges on whether one prioritizes a refined, bass-supported neutral tonality and premium titanium build over sheer soundstage breadth or budget efficiency.

Pros
Remarkably natural tonality. Only IEM I've heard that's able to match the texture of my open-back planars whilst having a hefty elevation. Mids that seem to match my HRTF perfectly, coming across so vivid and lifelike.Cons
Treble is smooth and solid but not the most natural I've heard.Find your next IEM:
