FANTASTIC

These headphones come with high recommendation thanks to their superior sound. Apart from the impressive bass range, the sound in general is exemplary. With a premium purchase price to consider, the SRH1540 is no casual investment, but those seeking something that will deliver the results in sound...

We have consistently been impressed by Shure's range of headphones, and have reviewed the SRH440 , SRH840 , SRH940 , SRH1440 , and the SRH1840 over the span of many years. Each model was great, with somewhat different strengths or weaknesses based on its price point or suitability to task.

Premium stuff ,using it with an asus essence stx II and im very satisfied , excellent for music ,games and movies too

The Shure SRH1540 has been around for a while now, but as far as high-end closed-back headphones go, it's nowhere near obsolete. Needing to write another review, I figured I might as well tackle a staple and give you the lowdown.

A great way to improve your audio experience that's able to be driven by nearly anything. Fantastic audio, but for a price.

The feel; Sound quality; Dashing good looks

Earcup size; Short cable; Strong treble at high levels

Shure has produced truly premium headphones that make monitoring an easy pleasure.

Exceptional clarity and detail; Light and comfortable to wear; Impressive low end extension

Price; Low mids sometimes dominated by the bass

So, Shure 1540s, excellent mids, very good imaging, just "Ok" isolation and leakage control, but a little bit too much bass. They are indeed enjoyable headphones and one of the most comfortable headphones I have ever put on BUT sadly, at this point in time, they are not for me.

The neutral sound; the soundstage; detail

Price; Cable

Wow, so much to say. But I'll keep it short: 1. Packaging from B&H was perfect. Arrived without a scratch 2. The hardened case, contoured foam and zip pockets for the cables are well planned out. Great to take on a flight if necessary 3.
