Having used many headphones - Sennheisers and AudioTechnica and more.. I find the Shure SrH1440s to be the very best. You have to pay much more to get anywhere near the sound quality.

Shure was founded in 1925. They began as a radio parts company and published their first catalog in 1926. Shure introduced their first microphone, the model 33N, in 1932, their first headset in 1942, and they haven't stopped making microphones and headphones since.

With plenty of Shure products landing on my desk this week, it seems like the perfect opportunity to tackle different models in each pricepoint. And for those searching for an open-back headphone around $300, the Shure SRH1440 maybe the answer to a prayer.
