Wow ok I assumed and stand corrected thanks for the enlightening detailed list.
So the BA could be anyone or a combination there of drivers from mixed sources.
I never got corrected by the seller and just assumed it was the Knowles drivers and it still could be?
Post 420 Ha Ha
My mistake and have to ask deeper questions in the future.
Thanks for pointing that out RG.
Yes, it could be one of the 3 BA makers out there. With them not saying Knowles (or Lou as they call them in china) it is more likely to not be them as they would market them if it was.
Learned something new thank you,
I dont want to be the guy spreading mis information.
I will update vid in the description with a disclaimer. Cheers J
Lots of sellers/companies use methods like this to fool unknowing customers
Thank you for calling this out! I was wondering why it was assumed that they were Knowles based solely on model numbers
The only scenario where some model numbers would confirm a specific brand, would be if it was the ones from Sonion. As they are the sole makers of BAs like theirs (afaik) and no one else uses their naming system.
Remember this one I showed yesterday?
One plus 4 BA at least they stated somewhat the configuration
First run has a typo on shell SL IVO
Instead of SLIIVO oops 
I’m looking forward to trying out other tunings, so far Variations is the perfect female highlight while the Xenns up is my bassy all-rounder
For now I just sit and wait until I got money and look for stuff with cool tunings
LHM? sorry, can you elaborate? Those are not the PULA PA02. What is LHM. (ten characters to post.) thank-you.
I got these from HiFiGo last Wednesday. I am not an expert on graphs, or anything yet. I have a portable FiiO Q3 DAC/AMP which I bought a year ago with Sennheiser HD560S. The Pula PA02 sound amazing to my ears. As I told Tone Deaf, I much appreciated the advice to buy these, as I am quite happy so far. I have used an EQ setting for the ThieAudio Monarch II on a Peace EQ on my PC, and the same with Wavelet on my Galaxy Phone. The “tuning” to my taste is spectacularly engaging. NiN Pretty Hate Machine, Queens of the Stone Age, Yunchan Lim’s Rachmanioff #2, Yoasobi Idol, Bowie’s Let’s Dance, Eminem Without Me are recent listens, and they all bang on the Pulas.
anyway my two cents: the Youtube reviewers are worth listening to, and as I said,I am happy.
also. Looks to be Pula did not skimp on the cable, or looks and finish, the cable is their $85.00 silver plated, copper core one on the Cicada store. (Quality Control, will keep you all informed.)
I don’t know about hype, but I think from my initial few days of owning these, and burning them in while I sleep, I will look very seriously at a Pula flagship IEM in the future if they develop one with the same Chinese tuner.
(ThieAudio, Simgot, and Fat Freq are brands I look to currently.)
you are correct. I was on the Aliexpress Cicada Audio Store chat with a customer service guy. They sell their own brand Pula. They manufacture their own custom BA’s, not Knowles.
I was interested because I bought these on ToneDeafMonks, and Jay’s Audio reviews on Youtube. I’ve only had them since Valentine’s (2024) but I love them. I got a pair of Simgot EM6L’s on the same day from Amazon, and so far enjoy the Pula’s more. The EM6L’s hit a bit too much sibilantly for me. (so far.) with the same EQ settings as the Pula’s. Anyway I like Tone Deaf, and have told him so. I feel he gives legit reviews, based on loving music, and this “hobby” of IEM’s
As far as quality control:

My thumb got sore scrolling that LOL
…another one fell for the trick.
Whenever a company says they got their own “custom” drivers = Bellsing or LS/E-Audio.
Did you add the “mostly male” part of did they? Very odd addition 
I wonder if “custom” in this case just implies that they tweaked the damping
I would think so unless you can get a customised version of the BA from the company?
While I have had my reservations about the Pula PAO2 I have found it’s perfect companion with Hiby RS2 now I really appreciate it’s playback.
Its not perfect but for sub $200 it sure does alot of things right.
Deeper into the rabbit hole with a slightly different tuning I am going with the SL41 taking me a while to figure out what I am liking or at least to put on paper.
Not as much bass more mids come through and layering this is interesting.
I like my bass tho so its hard compromise
