Shure SRH 440
Below the SRH 840s in the product range, Shure offers the SRH 440s, a hybrid set that's half-portable, half-fixed. Shure is continuing with their rather offbeat product positioning - this is a set of monitoring headphones positioned...
Pros:
- Transportable monitor headphones
- Incisive
- clear-cut sound
- Very good soundstage and instrument positioning for closed-back headphones
Cons:
- Lack of balance -de-emphasized midrange and too much bass
- Not light enough

great value and a good bit of kit
These are nice headphones. The response is balanced (no boomy bass) and perfect for reference listening or monitoring while tracking audio. The detachable cable is a smart design, and they fold to a reasonable size. These are not perfect, but no headphones are going to be.
Pros:
- Balanced sound
- Comfortable
- Detatchable cable
- Lots of value for price
Cons:
- None at this price
