SRH440 : Shure headphone review

This is my second pair of these. First pair is still going although cosmetically a bit of a mess and the 3.5mm pin is prone to bending. Love the flat frequency response and sound of these headphones and for the price I think they are great. On my first pair the plastic sort of fake leather lining on the bar that goes over your head started to degenerate after a couple of years and I would get flecks of black plasticky stuff stuck in my hair after long sessions. Purely cosmetic. Nothing some gaffer wont fix. Wish the length of the cable was a bit longer. In a studio setting you will need an extension to get any decent amount of length. Sound still fine and no distortion after all that time.
