Hello guys,
I m looking for a magnetic plannars. And came across PM1/2 and Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed.
Have few questions:
1. How much differ PM1 and PM2?
2. How Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Closed compares againts PM1/2?
My Source is Mscaler + Hugo2.
Thank you.
Thanks.I can only speak for Question 1:
My friends PM1 sounded exactly the same as my PM2 - according to Oppo it's only comsetic differences. The PM-2 is a great looking headphone but the PM-1 looks even more refined and luxurious.
Thanks.
Also they are described as semi open. But how in reallity they let sound out from back to environment? Like a open back or somewhere in between closed and full open? Thanks.
Thanks.To use your words: so where between closed and open backs. They are certainly not leaking als much as fully open ones - you will hear outside sounds but a bit damped and likewise people around you will hear what you are listening to but more faint than with fully open ones. Just took them out and gave them a small spin and they still are a great set of cans that I wish I would use more and wish they would still produce - such a great headphone. I have the PM2 and PM3.
Cheers.
Had my PM1 around 4 years and the headband still looks new. No flaking at all.Quick question (without searching I admit). Does the PM-1 headband wear like the PM-2 and PM-3, which are faux leather I know, unlike the PM-1, but flake abysmally and are of poor quality.
I am thinking after 2-3 years use ... as I have PM-2 and PM-3. Sound great, headband not so ... and, in case of PM-3, ear pads too.
Ditto. If your pm3 start to shed, just get in contact with Oppo service and for $99.00 they will replace the head band and ear cups. My3's look brand new. My PM1's on the other hand still look like new after 5 years.Same here. Had mine for 5 and not a flake to be seen, however, I have the PM3 also and it’s not a pretty picture. The headband is slightly flaking on the bottom side but I had to get replacement ear pads because they were just in horrible condition due to the faux leather.
The PM1’s are genuine leather so you may eventually get some wear but it will never be as bad as the PM3.
Oppo is still servicing the headphones? I thought they don’t exist anymore. Will they do ear pads?Ditto.

Yes. At least they were last year. They are honoring all warranties and out of warranty service. Better check their web site for sure.Oppo is still servicing the headphones? I thought they don’t exist anymore. Will they do ear pads?
Wow! Talk about a graceful exit out of the audio/video market. Who even does, or has ever done what Oppo has, years after their departure from the market? Props to Oppo for honoring their products after years of service!Yes. At least they were last year. They are honoring all warranties and out of warranty service. Better check their web site for sure.
