Thanks Hans,

The comparo with a well known headphone is all I need to know !
Now absolute correctness of the rig is irrelevant to me.
Far from neutral and dark sounding with a missing top-end extension.
Not my preference but others may very well like it.

This would explain what I thought of the PM-1. I heard some comments of poor man's Stax but I'm still unconvinced. I did not like what I heard anyways.

"PM-1 is a poor mans STAX." In some ways, it does make sense if you think about it. It does have some similarities to the SR007mk2.5.  But it ain't no STAX.


More on this later. I heard a PM-1/2 with some modified pads (from OPPO) which provided some good results.
