šŸ”¶ PULA (audio) PA02

That + just not turning up - happened so many times at events of his that I went to that itā€™s hard to feel the same about him. A lot of bookers I knew just gave up trying to deal with that shit

hate to burst the bubble but these areā€¦OK.
Not bad but just not anything special.
Bass is well extended but not very textured and lacks impact.
In fact the main problem i have with it is that the leading edges of notes are generaly soft and not as well defined as im used to.
Mids and highs are competent but nothing to right home about.
Its very inoffensive and will suit long listening sessions and works particualrly well on music that can get a bit shrill so is quite good with Metal/hard rock for that reason.
obviously this hobby is very subjective and these are just my personal thoughts so YMMV but any of the similarly priced planars will out perform this on almost all levels so sadly this isnt anywhere near making my usual rotation and will probaly find a home on my desk at work.

If you dig planars it means you either like or donā€™t mind planar timbre and planar pluck. (I canā€™t stand planars out of the 4 Iā€™ve tried)

It seems you enjoy those aspects so itā€™s going to be difficult to find a non-planar that competes in those departments.

The Pula has a flat gentle pinna which will soften the edges indeed.
Then TDM said it has a ā€œmusicalā€ bass which I interpret as in the slower, bloomier side rather than fast and dry.

Sorry it didnā€™t work out for you.

its fine, i have plenty of non planar sets as well and you are correct as im not overly fussy about timbre.
You win some you lose some and its not a bad set per se, just not to my taste and doesnt realy stand out from the competition but it will find its own fan base im sure.

I know that feeling. I have no idea why the Dunu SA6 IEMs are so loved. Especially the Ultra and Mk2 go too far. Just lean and soft with BA bass and BA timbre.

Um, no thx.

The sharp edges of Planar IEMs are what makes me hate them, harsh treble are not for me. Iā€™m happy to know that the PA02 doesnā€™t sound like that :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I fee l ya Andy! I have footed so much shit from Ali that I usually know that it will show up on the day before or last day that it is spose to get delivered. I will say that I have never had any issues with shipping with them,which is rad. Iā€™ve probably ordered over 50 cables and numerous things that I randomly think of and no problems. Yours will be here soon enough brother!
