I am cursed with Audiophile ears (curse to my wallet), I have a desktop headphone setup that is immaculate and I have been on the quest to get a similar experience in an IEM. I have auditioned so many. These are expensive sets and I made a trip to the manufacturers to test them for myself as no amount of reviews and technical curves can tell what your ears will really like. I tested U12T, U18T, Trio from 64 Audio; Andromeda, Astrolith,and Alien Brain, then I put the Clara in my ears, first off… they fit like a glove to my ears (like a finely adjusted CIEM), then I ran my test tracks and I was grinning ear to ear, what a sound, so perfect to my ears, with the latest Campfire usb dac, paired with a Fiio LC cable. The included Streamline Duet cables are good but I felt the bass was too pronounced on it, I also tried with my Kinera Glepnir cable which did not do it for me (felt a bit vieled), the Fiio LC is the sweetspot for me on Clara. This IEM shines in every category, Bass, Mid, Silky smooth treble, air, stage and texture. And all this is straight with an Iphone and the included USB C dac. When I put this thru my desktop dac (Chord Hugo 2), the music transforms to stratosphere, these IEMs can scale to the best equipment and sound super spectacular. My ears never preferred a straight BA setup or only a DD setup in IEMs for me the hybrid is the sweet spot. I tried the Mest MKII and Thieaudio Monarch tribrids and they were not for me. So in short your ears have to listen to an IEM if you really like them for the value they provide for the 2K price tag. Till then all these are personal impressions and comments.
Now I have to take a bow to the amazing team at MusicTeck, Angel and Andrew are the best in business, I called them at 5PM almost closing time and Angel confirmed he has the unit in stock, and he had UPS pick it up the same day so I could get the IEMs ASAP. The product was delivered in excellent packaging with foam inserts and the box was shrink wrapped as shipped by CampfireAudio. I am a customer for life for all my audio needs with MusicTeck. Thanks to this amazing team who understand the passion of an Audiophile and truly believe in serving the community.
