Shure SRH440 headphone revamped
We need a headphone section!
So I bought a Shure SRH440 in almost mint condition for just €15 euros. I couldn't resist as I know this discontinued headphone has been praised for its neutral sound signature. The headband felt dreadfull and the earpads where not the best so I decided to do a headband amputation as mentioned here https://www.thesoundapprentice.com/2014/07/mod-your-shure-srh840-headphones.html I put a Beyerdynamic DT770 headband around the metal frame and changed the earpads for the velour HPAEC940 version. It looks and feels like a 1000% better. And the sound is just fantastic!

Nice. These are probably the best headphones you can get under $100. Apart from some sub-bass rolloff they're very neutral.
They are indeed! I rate them higher than my DT770 which is everything but neutral. Stellar build but that V-shape..
It is very difficult to find a closed back headphone with a frequency response so close to the Harman curve like the Shure. Too bad they don't make them anymore, they messed with the frequency response of the updated 440A version. If somehow my revamped 440 breaks apart I'll buy the 440A and swap the drivers
I have the Beyer DT990 and I hate them. Why is that brand so highly rated ?
Because everybody is repeating the same mantra: ask for a good studio headphone and 9 out of 10 will recommend you DT770 & Audio Technica M50x. You really have to start digging to find better solutions.
I’ve got ATH M-50x’s for tracking and AKG-550’s for mixing. Can’t do open back because my house is too noisy. Both are lovely. AKG is generally more Harmon curve-ish.
