  Here's a question for Oppo, if someone can address it:
 
I have noticed that on the Oppo US site, it is stated that the PM3 headphones come with a 3m OFC cable and also a 1.2m smartphone cable. However, your Australian site only states that it comes with a 3m cable and some dealers have already listed the 1.2m cables at $35 AUD each. Are you expecting Australians to pay for the mobile cable as extra? I hope this is an over site, as it would really not be very fair.

Minidisc lists them as coming with an inline remote cable so hopefully its correct.

I really hope so because A2A and Oppo AU just state the 3m cable. I'm sure all will be sorted and clear once they finally arrive here in Australia in a few weeks.

Yeh hopefully it will be in stock when I head down to A2A next week so I'll be able to check it out in person.

Hope it is there, if it is then I'll head over there and check it out myself sometime as well. Will bring a couple of headphones to compare with it as well!

First time post. I will be receiving the pm-3 in black, the momentum 2.0 wired in ivory, and the Beyerdynamic t51i tomorrow. I am auditioning these to use as night time cans. They will be used solely with an iPhone 6 plus. I'll post some impressions and pictures shortly.

Oppo Digital AU is actually Australasian distributor International Dynamics as a FYI.    Both Oppo Digital AU and Oppo Digital NZ share the same web design.

My new portable headphone benchmark - the denon ah mm400's as well as some B&W p7's and some molded Sony Mr 1r's if I can fit them all in my bag!

Definitely the denons though as they're what I'm currently using and enjoying out and about.

Thanks for that info. I have heard straight from Oppo that they are including  the 1.2mm mobile cable for US consumers only  So,those of us who are non-US consumers are at the mercy of the various region distributers as to whether they charge extra for the mobile cable or include it. Somehow, I think most of us will be charged extra which is a real shame : (

Not necessarily. For the PM-1 we released the Alternative Leather Earpads in the summer which had the same caveat that we were including it free of charge to previous and current PM-1 customers, and that it was up to the local distributor to follow suit. They did as well, so it is likely that the additional 1.2m cable will be included with your purchase internationally.

Rang A2A today and its been delayed for a couple more weeks so sadly no demo for me next week. The HA-2 is also delayed which is a double bummer for me

Thanks for that, I really hope that you are right as one Australian dealer has the 1.2m cables for sale separately on their website already.

Def double bummer. Desperate to try these out. Always amazes me that Australia is usually the last to get anything when most products are actually manufactured in Asia, the nearest continent. Go figure. Come on US owners, let's have some more pics and video reviews for your poor cousins Down Under while we wait…...
