Product details

The SRH1840 is a top-of-the-range open headphone that offers unparalleled acoustic performance thanks to its individually tuned drivers. Its extended treble and accurate bass will satisfy both studio professionals and audio enthusiasts.

The SRH1840 takes full advantage of an open design and is ideal for professional mixing, mastering, and demanding audiophile music enjoyment:

  • A more natural, open sound
  • Increased fidelity of sound, making it more lively
  • Better spatial location of instruments

Individually Tuned Drivers:
Thanks to the SRH1840's individually tuned drivers, users experience unparalleled acoustic performance that is extremely linear and free from distortion of the original source. The crystal clear trebles are extended and sound very soft. The bass reaches deep and remains accurate.

High Wearing Comfort and Removable Cable:
The lightweight and stable aluminum construction, velour padding, and padded headband ensure high comfort even during long periods of use. The SRH1840 features high-quality workmanship typical of Shure robustness. The two-sided, removable cable with gold-plated MMCX connectors makes cable replacement easy and convenient.

Scope of Delivery:
The scope of delivery includes two oxygen-free cables and adapters, a sturdy storage case, and replacement velour ear pads.

The Difference to the SRH1440:

  • The SRH1840's drivers are individually matched to reproduce sound as identically as possible on both sides.
  • The sound of the SRH1440 is somewhat more pronounced in the bass range, while the SRH1840 offers more accurate bass and smoother extended treble.
  • The frame of the SRH1840 is made entirely of metal, whereas the SRH1440 has a plastic housing with a metal substructure, making the SRH1840 more compact, lighter, and therefore more comfortable.

The Shure SRH1840 is a wonderful candidate for long listening sessions. It sounds exciting and relaxed, neutral and emotional and also scores with perfect wearing comfort.

Rank 3 out of 8AudiovisionReleaseJuly 2013

The neutral and open sound stands out particularly well in the test. The Shure SRH 1840 also scores with its high wearing comfort. The distortion in the low bass and the low volume when connecting to mobile phones are annoying.
