I'm not sure who buys it though....if you're spending $1100 on a headphone you would do some research and IMHO even the HD650 from a decent amp is better sounding.
Thanks for the info about the PM-2, I did not know that it was dropped.
I find that strange and thought it would be the PM-1 that would be dropped. Why pay $400 more for a massive wooden box that is not portable and slightly more luxurious materials?
AFAIK they sound pretty much the same.
I hope for more from Oppo. Their build quality and pricing are very good and they have the resources to put out a better product than Hifiman or Audeze. I just hope they want to do it.
Is anyone at Oppo listening?
It isn't always the same sound if the housing around the cups are made of different material even if the drivers are the same. I agree, they're very similar but I bet they PM2s were selling bad at retail when you have to pay full MSRP and tax when applicable. It's obvious they want to keep a flagship headphone on board.
