Great headphones, not for audiophiles though August 19, 2010 Josh (Pennsylvania, USA) Just got these headphones, they are pretty sweet. I love the 10' cord, I feel perfectly safe standing up from my laptop and not worrying about my headphones being tragically ripped out. The headphones are extremely comfortable from the first time I put them on, and the earcups are very big compared with my Philips headphones, which feels great even after a few hours of wearing them.
A few notes about the sound quality:
Audio is very clean and there is great sound definition. The bass is nothing impressive however, I wish there was a bassboost feature/switch. These headphones are excellent, but they seem to be more for studio recording since the vocal quality is quite excellent. So, the bottom line is if you want a great pair of headphones at a good price, pick these - if you want an AMAZING pair (for you audiophiles out there), step up to a more expensive pair from Shure.
Excellent! August 13, 2010 jim Wow, it is one of my best headphones. I am using it in my own home studio, and feel great. I recommand it to people who want to make some serious music.
Tl;dr: Good headphones August 3, 2010 Stephanie Although lacking a bit in comfort, these headphones are quite nice.
They present music the way it was recorded. They do not emphasize bass or treble, but try to be as accurate as possible.
After a few hours of wear, they will begin to get a bit uncomfortable, but that is easily aided by shifting them around a bit.
They seem like they are built to last, but the small wires on the sides of the cups could prove to be a problem if they get snagged on something, but I have fixed this with a bit of electrical tape to hold them down.
All in all, I quite like these headphones and I would recommend them.
Sophisticated & Economical July 8, 2010 Michael F. Allen (Richmond, VA USA)
I received these just before leaving on a week-long vacation, on which they got quite a bit of use.
SOUND: I didn't burn them in, but right out the box they sounded great. The bass tends to be weaker than I'd like on some songs, but on others is all-enveloping and punchy... so it obviously depends on the recording/compression/etc. On my iPod the sound was noticeably flat sounding... but plugged into the audio port on my MacBook Pro, they sound incredible. Spoken word is especially impressive, such as podcasts, movie trailers, etc. I mostly listen to electronic, trance, pop, new wave, and many "independent" artists... so I really wanted something that would bring out the vibrancy and depth of my library w/o making a $400+ investment. These do the job very, very well.
DESIGN & BUILD: The only thing that really turned me off to these phones was the vinyl ear pads, which seemed cheap and out-dated - that is, before I opened the box. They are actually very soft, durable and of very good quality. The SRH 440s hug my head perfectly. The only discomfort I get is when they are on for long periods of time, as the lack of cushioning on the headband tends to be quite painful for me... but I find this only happens when they are sitting just a bit too far back on the top of my head, and so a quick adjustment alleviates it immediately. Like others have said, the build of the 440s is solid and made to last. The small wires that run from each earphone into the headband cause me to be more careful when handling them though... I'm just afraid I'll snag them on something.
OVERALL: These are my first over-the-ear headphones, and the sound and build is all of fairly high quality. I've owned some great sound systems, for example my previous car was an imported Volvo w/ Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound (I have never and have yet to hear a sound system so powerful and sophisticated, on the right night/day, that baby could take me to another galaxy lol) and I think I know sound well enough for my endorsement to be warranted and informed. For the price, these are an essential for either the casual listener or audiophile looking for a decent pair of headphones (and I supposed studio recording as well, as that is what they are made for).
great studio cans July 1, 2010 Robert E. Richardson I spent 8 hours in the studio tracking at full volume with these guys and had to have a pair for home recording. Great sound, great build quality, and great features! If the cord breaks you can replace it. If the earpads are old you can replace em'. They have great sound isolation to boot! At this price they can't be beat.
