Shure SRH 840 DJ Product Review
Headphones you’re "Shure" to love
Working DJs know there’s precious little that can compare to an impressive DJ headphone that not only caters to all your demands, is good with all tracks, 100% dependable and is a looker to boot. While that’s not bad, I know of something better; that’s finding a headphone with all these traits plus one more: an affordable price tag. Seems like an impossible find, right? Don’t believe a DJ headphone like this can really exist? Rest easy, because it "shure" does, and comes in the form of Shure’s SRH-840 headphones.
Shure designed the SRH-840 headphones for studio recording as well as critical listening, turning it into a headphone ideal for both professional audio engineers and musicians/working DJs. With a "precisely tailored" frequency response and 40 mm neodymium dynamic drivers combined with comfort and durabiliy, Shure has guaranteed working DJs will get the ultimate listening experience with the SRH-840 headphones. To make sure these monitoring headphones can last close to a lifetime, Shure conveniently included a replaceable cable with an incredible length of ten feet for added flexibility. They also threw in an extra set of earpads–when your first ones are rendered useless, you’ve got a trusted back-up. Another plus is the close back, circumaural design that offers comfort (comfy rest over the ears) and incredible sound by reducing background noises, honing in your senses on what matters most. The SRH-840 comes with a threaded quarter inch gold-plated adapter. Check out this beauty…
