    Audio Zenith PMx2

    Basically modded Oppo PM-2’s. Very well done. Very well balanced and warm tilted. Super comfy for all day wear.

    These have the felt pads, which I thought had a bit more high end at the expense of slightly softer lows than the leather perforated pads. This was my preference.

    I took the Audio Zenith stickers off because they stated to come off anyway and I liked the sleeker look of the original Oppo look. Headband mostly in good shape with a bit of flaking at the connection sides. See pic.

    Comes with 6 ft. custom balanced cable as well as the stock cable and the Denim case.

    CONUS and shipping included of course.

    That’s an insane deal. One of the best headphones ever IMNSHO. Someone please buy it before I talk myself into getting it as a spare unit. (With the velour pads, I assume it’s a v1. Nothing wrong with that, though. Just a subtly different tuning.)

    (Buyer note: The PMx2 needs a beefy amp. Not sure why.)

    Yes, it is a v1.

    I will also add that I am the second owner. It was sent to Audio Zenith last year for a checkup and given the all clear and then sent directly to me.

    The PMx2 does need a beefy amp. I really liked it out of the Black Widow and the Mjolnir 1 as well as (of course) the Ragnarock 1. They do not need as much an HE-6, but I would put them on par with an HE-500 as far as power requirements. Even a Lyr 3+ or Asgard 3 would be just fine.

    And only selling because I am going the other way for HD800's.

    If it's the pair that I sold you, then it is actually V2 but with the velour pads. I think Alex made a few pairs of the V2 with the velour pads before transitioning to the leather pads.
