- In this video, I compare two popular in-ear monitors (IEMs): the AFUL Performer 5 and the PULA PA02. I talk about their build quality, sound signature, comfort, and overall performance to help you decide which one is the right choice for you.

Comfort being the most important factor in choosing between these 2 pairs, I finally opted for the Aful P5 during the Spring Sales !🙂 Can't wait to have them in my ears !
Good choice! Comfort is definitely crucial. I hope they bring you hours of enjoyable listening.
Did you get them ? Do you enjoy them ?
Yes, more PULA PA02 thoughts. I've been scouring the internet and youtube to find as much info about them as possible because i'm waiting for my pair from AliExpress.
I hope your pair arrives soon. The PULA PA02 seems to be generating a lot of interest and for a good reason.
Nice review. thank you. I already have the P5's and really enjoy them. I know the PAo2 has had a bunch of great reviews but I can't justify the purchase.
Thanks for watching! Since you already have the P5's and are enjoying them, getting the PULA PA02 would likely be more of a sidegrade, as the differences in sound are minimal and they sound quite similar. Enjoy your P5's!
I like the pula Pa02, didn't get the P5 because I already have the explorer.
@@Helmond2017 hello, which do you like more and how does the bass of Pula pa02 compare to Aful explorer?
@@cyber_dbs The Pula Pa02 sound more coherent. With a bit more upper mids. The Explorer has slight ba timbre but that isn't bothersome. I don't own both of these. I have the Aful Explorer, auditioned the Pa02 from a friend. If you don't have any of those and prefer a more energetic one, get the Pa02.
I think the PA02 are a stunning set.
I agree.
Just canceled the order for the Aful's, and bought the 02's. ❤
Enjoy your new PA02's.
Bro I think you sound more natural in this video than the previous ones you uploaded where you sound overly too. masculine. Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you found this video more natural. I'll keep working on improving. 👍
Gender neutrality is cool! I'm trans and I love my Aful Performer 5 🏳️⚧️@@Atechreviews
Wondering if you will try the SL41 as well?
Hmm.
I'd love to see your review of SL41 as well!
please do a pul pa02 vs p5 vs tanchjim orijin comparison video
OK. I will try to find the time and do that 🙂
Waiting for this comparison. Have the p5 and didn't buy the pula or the cklvx because they seemed pretty similar. And because although i find the p5 a good iem, it's not one of my favourites and to me doesn't justify its price. I like a more clean and technical presentation. To me the p5 seems a bit cluttered and bloated sometimes. Instrument separation, soundstage, resolution and detail retrieval seem average at best when looking at its price. There are a lot of cheaper sets that do better in the technical department. Hope you can get your hands on the letshuoer cadenza 4. Seems more like my thing. According to what i've red and seen seems more neutral, clean with more detailed presentation while remaining natural sounding.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I'm a bit late to the party with the P5. I agree that there are now different options available at the same price, offering a different sound signature. The Letshuoer Cadenza 4 is interesting.
P5 respond well to EQ you should give it a try to fix the congestion. That's what I did and it elevated my love for it.
@@ari-athbadminton0301 i wouldn't buy an iem of its price to eq it. (Only)
What do you recommend around 150 dollars?
@@DrinkWater713 what do you want/ like or are searching for?
I have the 5 and I just ordered the PA02.. Hoping for a better fit with the PA02
That's awesome! I hope you enjoy your new PA02 👍
@@Atechreviews Thanks for the doing this review. I just received them.. As you pointed out in your video, I was initially concerned about the size difference compared to the Performer 5's. Surprisingly, the PA02 actually fit the shape of my ear better. I'm using spinfit cp100 (L) tips and the fit is actually perfect with great isolation. Running them off of my fiio Q15. So far, so good with my current playlist.
@@dustind9242 So, how do they compare in your opinion? Is the Pula more detailed? Is the subbass much better on the 5?
hi i wanna link for the mini tubes bar so nice from where you get it ??
I'll try to find the link for you!
How is Pula Pa02 vs Falcon Ultra
The Falcon Ultra has a warmer, bass-focused sound with good clarity and detail. It's colored but enjoyable. The PULA PA02 is more neutral with less bass and fewer technicalities. I enjoyed the Falcon Ultra much more than the PA02. I'd choose the Falcon Ultra for its detail, sound stage, tuning nozzles, DUNU S&S tips, better bass, fun and natural sound, and super impressive accessories.
@@Atechreviews thanks I have another question. I bought Blon bl03 (20$) 2 years ago & Loved it. Tangzu wanner ( loved it. ) Then I got S12 Pro and liked it. Got Simgot Ew200 which i preferred over the S12 Pro.
But then I bought Aful performer 5 i hated it. P5's tuning is what I love on paper. But when I tried them they were just ok. Vocals didn't got me engaged, bass was ample & warm no details there. Treble was good.
Then bought Chopin ( loved it's details, vocal etc but bass was okaish. Texture was good but Lacked warmth. ) due to fit issue i returned them.
Now I'm thinking between Thieaudio Hype 4, Origin and Falcon Ultra.
I don't know if I would like Hype 4 as P5 was my first hybrid set and I didn't liked it.
I like bassy for edm, neutral for vocal sound signature.
@@fuzail3379 I love the Hype 4 and the Falcon Ultra but they have different sound signatures. If you like warm, bassy sound with neutral, clear vocals, then Falcon Ultra is the IEM for you. They even come with two tuning nozzles to adjust the sound.
@@Atechreviews thanks man
@@fuzail3379 You're welcome.
Pula PA02 or Truthear Hexa?
Truthear Hexa.
@@Atechreviews Aren't the PA02 and Hexa quite different in sound, and the PA02 is more than twice the price? I got the Hexa from Amazon and returned it after 2 days because I found it somewhat thin and analytical. I was surprised because a lot of UA-camrs are hyping the cr*p out of it. My impression from all the PA02 reviews is that it is a much more comfortable sounding and engaging iem, while still having a lot of detail.
@@thomaskuhn6541 Sound preferences are subjective. The Hexa and PA02 are quite different in sound, with the Hexa having a neutral, tonally correct sound signature. I appreciate its ability to remain resolving even during busy passages, which is why it ranks high for me. Using foam ear tips can smooth out the treble and remove any perceived treble emphasis. The hype around the Hexa might stem from its impressive price-to-performance ratio. It sounds like the tuning of the Hexa didn't align with your preferences, which is perfectly okay! The PA02, being more engaging, may indeed be a better fit for you. Enjoy your audio journey!
Pula definitely
P5 looks good tho, Pula looks kinda cheap and oversaturated..
P5 looks great. It is a matter of preference.
Neither, get the CKLVX D41s.
What is that?
apparently the pa02 copied that design@@Atechreviews
case is same tips included are same graph almost same
@@sirericklimah3731mayer audio sells cklvx D41 they are the manufacturer.
Pula pa02 also gets manufactured from Mayer Audio
That face plate! Looks like somebody got drunk and shot up a fruit cart!
Haha, that's a colorful way to describe it! It definitely stands out, doesn't it?
Dusk is superior than both.For me AFUL iems lack bass and 3-4 khz
I agree about the low bass. The Dusk is likely to cost around 50% more than the AFUL, but it will probably offer better sound quality.
