I love the sound of my Oppo PM-3 cans. Excellent closed back sound for those isolationist times.
But. Mine are less than a year since new earpads were fitted and already the thin pleather is cracking and flaking. Not impressed. At all. The headband had also already given up the ghost, and I've a zip up wraparound cover fitted. Looking online, this is not unusual.
So, any suggestions for closed back planar magnetics at a similar used price (£200) that don't fall to bits after a few months of not very heavy usage?
Classical music listening only.
And no, I don't want them to sound like big Tannoys.
