I have put them through an initial quality assurance test.
The Shure SRH440 are very nice looking headphones and have rock solid build quality. The build quality in this price range ($100) is very impressive. They also come with a detachable coiled cable, 1/4 adapter and a leather type material carrying case...nice touch Shure. I find these cans very comfortable, more so than my MS-1. Sound quality delivers as well. Nicely balanced, detailed treble, great bass. Oldskoolboarder, the fact you got the SRH840's for $129 is an unbelievable deal, what a steal
, these are very nice closed headphones for the price.
