Hey everyone... I'm looking for OEM Oppo PM-3 ear pads, but recommendations for suitably sized non-OEM pads very much welcome too.
Thanks in advance

Pads for Oppo PM-3:![]()
I purchased the Brainwavz flat sheepskin pads for my closed back PM-3 headphones.

With the Oppo pads un-clipped (using a pocket knife), the pads stretch easily over the ear cups.
The sound signature changed to a brighter presentation, which I actually prefer as the PM-3s are reported to have a warm signature. My old ears need a bit of treble boost.
The pads are very comfortable, with a larger interior to accommodate my large ears.
The attenuation of outside noise has improved a lot. I cannot hear anyone talking to me.
The only down side is that the pads squeak when you move your head quickly... not good for head-bangers
Lying down on my pillow, once settled in there is no squeaking.

If you are serious about sound forget them.I was just about to order those pads now, but reading this im not so sure!
price has nothing to say. its just that the quality of them arent so good. It isnt real leather. After some time they crack up. I want to upgrade from that!If you are serious about sound forget them.
I finally went with the original ones. Oppo still sells them for 39$. It`s not that much of a difference in price..
