OPPO PM-1 / PM-2 Loaner Program

I'm interested in the PM-2's. I understand and accepts the terms & conditions. 
 
I just heard the PM-2 modded at a Denver meet yesterday. I have to say that it was amazing. I also listened to the PM-3 as well yesterday. I just found this thread today. I really liked the PM-2. I compose music, almost all classical and a little new age. I do my composing on a large 3 manual organ and a digital piano. I compose symphonies and am looking for a headphone that reproduces the sound of the instruments fairly accurately.

I would like to join the loaner program for both the PM-1 and PM-2.
I agree to the conditions.

Can my place in line be moved DOWN a couple of slots? It'd be nice if I could have these over the weekend of the 25th. Partially because I'll have more listening time then, but also because the 25th is the big Seattle meetup, so I can get a lot more people to listen to them as well.

Received PM-1 #1 this morning and have used then for a bit on my Fiio x3. So far I like them quite a bit, very comfortable. Will test them on my desktop setup against my TH-900s.

What is the difference in sound between the leather and the leather alt pads?

Yes. The alternative leather earpads are designed to sound more like the PM-2 earpads. They have a little more treble to them.

I would say also that the PM-1 sounds much better with the alt pad as the treble roll-off is less pronounced with them.

After using the PM-1s for awhile here are my thoughts versus my TH-900s.
 
Comfort
Both are comfortable and can be used for hours with out an issue. As far as which is more comfortable, I can't decide.
 
Sound
All and all, the two sound similar. Listening to a wide set of genres I'd say the PM-1s sound great for; alternative, rock, trance, edm, metal, and solo guitar. I preferred my TH-900s for; symphony/classical, solo piano, and jazz. The Pm-1s are very smooth and the mids were exceptional. I found myself using them for rock and alternative over my TH-900s. The sound stage on the PM-1s are more personal and less wide then the TH-900 (Although I don't think that is a bad thing). Lows are well controlled. Mids feel life like to me. Highs are a little rolled off, however I prefer this as even my TH-900s paired with a song with plenty of focus on the highs can become fatiguing.
