Oppo PM-3 Headphones

Desain PM-3 has a closed back (over the ear) and was one of several magnetic planar models which are optimized for mobile use. Model open back generally offer a more open, airy sound, but they also leak sound, which makes them less than ideal when used in the presence of others. Oppo PM-3 is looking good headphones. Solidly built, has all-metal headband and hinges, and comes in white or black. It is also a convenient headphone, although a tad heavy at 320 grams. It's much easier to drive than the typical planar magnetic headphones and will work well with your mobile phone, play with sufficient volume (sensitivity 102 dB). New Audeze EL-8 ($ 700) also works with smartphones and so does the HiFiMan HE-400i ($ 500), but most headphones planar magnetic can not play all the installed hard for small, battery-powered device (as opposed to a home stereo ).

Headphones are equipped with a 3 meter cable that ends in a 3.5mm plug, nice finishes in denim bag, and screw-on 6.35mm adapter for home stereo. If you book through the website Oppo headphones, you can choose a wired bonus (free) which has an integrated remote and microphone. One cable is designed for use with Android devices while another version geared for people who use Apple iOS. PM-3 is one of the headphones make good songs recorded sound. It sounds rich but provide a lot of detail, offering a very fine voice. It is more complete in the bass and treble sweet than just strictly neutral, which makes it warmer and smoother than the Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7. PM-3's voice really comes alive with high-res music.

Listen to high-res 192/24-bit files on the music player Sony Walkman NWZ-A17, the voice more clearly, plus it is the body and the dimensions of the NAD Viso HP50. Moving back to lossless file-standard resolution, when compared between the PM-3 with headphones Sony MDR-1R when listening to Los Lobos 'Kiko and the Lavender Moon'. Once again, we hear the voice of the PM-3 is pulling ahead in terms of solidity and body. The new Sony MDR-1A has the clarity (of the MDR-1R), but PM-3 a little more complete and more open sound from the headphones. But it is also less forgiving, so you'll get the best results denganjenis jazz, classical and pop. While it sounds good to rock, hip-hop and techno, you probably will not buy these headphones if they are the main genre of music you listen to.

The last comparison we are doing is to HiFiMan HE-400i. While the open back planar magnetic models that are significantly larger, two headphones have a comparable sound profile and also sounds similar. Although the closed-back, Oppo managed to measure well into HiFiMan in terms of openness. Oppo PM-3 Headphones obviously be the better choice for mobile use.
