I got these for some recording projects and couldn't be happier. Great sound, great stereo imaging. Thanks Delvin for recommending them!

Gotta Love 'em

Right off the bat, these cans are built to last. They stood up to a few round of "tug of war" with my two yr. old niece. They even come with an extra pair of earpads and I like that the cable is repla... read more [+]ceable. The padding feels like leather. Heck, I'd just remove the cable and wear them for some peace and quiet. Oops, I almost forget to mention that they sound great. There's an air about them that says "Let's get to work and have some fun". Three hours later I forgot they were on and had to take them off to go to bed. They sound honest, airy and detailed....oh, they also are LOUD! Then again that's another reason I bought them. I have a 12 yr. old pair of Beyerdynamic DT770 's that have seen better days but feel like pillows on my ears but have a much higher impedence, so they need a bit more power but sound soooooo sweet. I've also a pair of Sony 7506's which I have now relegated to my ipod. All in all, I'm very happy with them as MINE, so if I'm ever recording with someone else, they can use another set of my cans, or, better yet, get their own set of 840's. I'm "Shure" they will be very pleased! close [-]

What ?

This will make you wanna call your sales engineer and ask for your money back but before you do that. Do some testing your self.

The difference is these SRH840 is a bid clearer in it imaging/detailing which is good for mixing or going over your mixes.
Also hardly any pressure on the head plus which you will notice compares to the S-HD280pro. Is the price is right for it ? Yes. So, it is a good upgrade for me. You won't be disappointed but before you say "mmm what" crap other cans and double check it. close [-]

Shure SRH840

GREAT set of headphones. Good fit, well made, excellent sound. Tight bass. Seals out sound from the room very well.

Great studio headphones. My favorite at the moment. Only missing the headroom in the bass frequencies, tends to give in a little but not bad and only when really asking ALOT from them. All around grea... read more [+]t set! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer is the best. If I need it tomorrow, I have it tomorrow. He makes sure everything is in order and that I'm set up right. I've spent a lot of money at other places, too, but I don't remember them calling me to make sure everything's okay.
