Campfire Audio was started in 2015. Its founder, Ken Ball, had been running ALO Audio, making high-end cables and portable amps such as the Continental Dual Mono. The team is based in Portland, Oregon, and before Campfire Audio existed the team in Portland was already building premium cables and amplifiers under the ALO Audio name. The company's first in-ears were deliberately simple single- and dual-driver models. In 2016 it released Andromeda, its first five-driver flagship, combining five balanced armature drivers with carefully tuned acoustic chambers. Since then Campfire Audio has created over 70 different in-ear monitors, along with cables and accessories. Its product history page describes nearly a decade of experience and 70+ models and iterations, listing years from 2015 through 2026 and products including Chimera, Trifecta Crimson, Andromeda 10, Andromeda 10 LE, Grand Luna, Axion, and Alien Brain.

Campfire Audio describes itself as crafting unique earphones with a wide range of sound signatures, using what it calls "organic tuning" and its TAEC technology, with everything crafted in southeast Portland.
