Lol, you should be the one to talk about pissing on other headphones. First you apply some PEQ to the K701 and champion it as the HD800 and Stax 009 destroyer. Now it's the modded PM2 which is the destroyer of all flagships. Everything you touch is the destroyer of ALL and you can't take a little criticism? You must be kidding. Russian Bear?? Lol, you strike me more as a Laika:

He never made it back from his mission btw. Woof! Woof!
You know better then most it wasn't just PEQ applied to those 701s. I stated publicly many times that proper FR for me personally is the most essential part of the overall sound quality in both headphones and loudspeakers (you should also know I DSPd speakers professionally for many years).
I specifically demoed those AKGs against both 009s and 800s from the same source at several meets because honestly believe they can compete and to many even come out on top. To me personally they were a clear winner and was never a secret.
Moreover I honestly believe many audiophiles value different things in sound quality simply because it's difficult to experience proper FR with anything except for life concerts but even those become less and less so while being EQd and amplified all over the place. How you can put this personal opinion of mine against what everyone else values in sound quality is beyond me though. When and where did I publicly proclaim that any of my sets are best of the best and the absolute truth in audio?
My PM-2 measured three times better then most anything else on MY OWN RIG and so what, do you suggest I should just hide it? If you think different then measure it yourself compare and then judge, I won't mind.
As for me not being able to take a little critique you are wrong again:
1) per comments from Hans trim materials were changed from carbon fiber to a hologram obtaining a cleaner, more polished look (even though I started working on those changes well before he first saw my set his opinion mattered a lot because there was no consensus from people I know as to which way to go).
2) per multiple comments logo was changed slightly but suppose in a good and acceptable way ;-)
3) LF boost was added per comments from Hans even though work on that last mod has started a while ago and I was just debating to put it in production or not Hans definitely gave me that last push that I could make it (see FR graphs posted earlier)
4) Decided to include a good quality 6.35 Stereo to XLR adapter to increase the overall value.
Funny and sad how you mentioned Laika, she (not a male dog as you say) underwent incredible training, was selected for a mission to cosmos and She Has Been There. This makes her an astronaut but what does this make you, those who make fun of the first astronauts?
Either way, I feel your latest comments are becoming less and less sensible while being more and more personally insulting at the same time. Not sure how you can't see it yourself but sorry no one is telling you.
