This would have brought tears to the eyes of americanspirit. I miss that guy.T'was about time since I love them so much, my Night Oblivion Butastur review is up on headfi here
https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/night-oblivion-butastur.26677/reviews#review-32661
THE PLUS:
-smooth cohesive and natural balance
-warm to gently bright neutral with mellow bass boost
-extremely versatile musicality
-spot on tone and timbre
-dense lush rich natural mids
-weighty non fatiguing thick bass
-good note weight
-wide instrument presence
-master of acoustic instruments and vocal (piano, saxo, violin, cello)
-smooth like butter without the warmth muddyness
-excellent layering and good imaging
-holographic spatiality
-can be use for monitoring or music enjoyment
-rich sound info that scale up with source
-TOTL performance for the price
-jack of all trade, master of tone
-safely tuned without being boring
-excellent cable
-excellent sound value
THE MINUS:
-bass is a bit warm in definition of impact
-like always with multi BAs, it lack sparkle-brilliance
-when treble switch on and bass switch off, highs are less refined
-not the cleanest background especially when bass impact occur
-quite intimate soundstage
-will be too maturely tuned for both treble head and basshead
-personaly, im not a fan of more than 1 switch
-and those switch cant be turned with our finger
-a bit capricious in term of ear tips, cable and source pairing (worth the best!)
Got these in my ears as I type. Paired with the Sony WM1A.....WOWEE!!! My ears are happy af!EA1000! Can't wait to shill the heck out of them haha
That's very close to my impressions of Butastur. After that I was looking for a little more fun sound and found SR7, although not so technical. Now I don't need any new IEM when I have these two great ones - they cover all my music styles preferences.T'was about time since I love them so much, my Night Oblivion Butastur review is up on headfi here

Leaving aside all the fuss about samples; everything is always the result of something....
Personally, all I require from a reviewer is to hear just a general impressions of the "technicalities", not the poetry of a man lost in sound (which is in many ways deceptive), the rest can be read from the graph.
In Butastur I would worry about bump at 1-1-5khz and at 5khz (BA timbre?), if I were at all interested in this kind of tuning.

Love your wittiness... especially if for once it would not actually be disrespectful.Great "review" of the "review sample". I hope Penon would feel that it was $600 worth (?) Could be 5.5 stars after all... So much for the "IEM for the masses" that Butastur supposed to be.
The hobby is felt to be totally destroyed/obliterated, as far as the youtube/headfi/hifiguides is any indicator.
I dont have the Pula-02 it wasn't in my list I do have the Pula-02 on the way from Ali though so can report back after it arrives I think you have confused with @ToneDeafMonk Who is very much the torch bearing guy for the Pula-02@PeacockObscura Which do you prefer out of the OD200 and Pula-02? I think I saw that you said the Pula is your IEM of the year but you also love the OD200. Which would you recommend for mostly hip-hop, EDM, rock?
Sure!As far as I can remember, not a single review sample of Butastur was sent out. Whoever has them bought them with their own money, with maybe a maximum of $80 or something discount.
I can confirm I bought them with my hard-earned money:
And they are still my best iem, although have to compare them with the OH700VB.
Don't know I messed up with that above formatting! It's not o0genesis comment but from @PeacockObscuraLI dont have the Pula-02 it wasn't in my list I do have the Pula-02 on the way from Ali though so can report back after it arrives I think you have confused with @ToneDeafMonk Who is very much the torch bearing guy for the Pula-02
I'm sure there are one or two or five spelling errors...on that one. Thank-you. You can always point those out, I'm grateful!Do they have a metal (or is it mental ) shell?
Cheers!
