Sound leakage is built into design?not ideal for public listening and not well-suited for home recording. Massive protective case is effective, but large enough to make it difficult to pack.
The SRH1440 headphones are comfortable and ruggedly built with highly detailed sound that will surely thrill audiophiles.

The SRH1440s are large and don't fold flat, limiting their usability for traveling listeners.
With plenty of Shure products landing on my desk this week, it seems like the perfect opportunity to tackle different models in each pricepoint. And for those searching for an open-back headphone around $300, the Shure SRH1440 maybe the answer to a prayer.
The Shure SRH1440 are excellent headphones. Revealing, comfortable and versatile – as long as you keep them indoors – they perform at the level of the top dogs in their class. Some may prefer a relaxed listen, but these are among the best sub-£250 headphones around.

Not quite as comfy as Sennheiser rivals, May be a tad bright for some
I own 3 pairs of headphones, VMODA M100's, Audio Technica M50X's, and these. I do most of my mixing on my M50X's and M100's, but these are my go to headphones for when making final mix decisions and mastering. These are not fun headphones, there big, and extremely flat.
The Shure 1440 despite being slightly more than half the price of the 1840 compares well in most respects. The highs by default are very similar to the Shure 940, but with extra earpad inserts they more closely resemble the 1840.
The Shure SRH1440 Pro open-back headphones are simply amazing. I never fully appreciated the depth, clarity and range that my Yamaha Arias could produce until I heard the sound through these headphones. Well worth the money.
HEAR EVERYTHING WITH THESE CANS. MONEY WELL SPENT.
Couldn't be a more level freq range. Exactly what a reference pair of headphones should be. NOTE -- these are reference headphones and I wouldn't recommend them for normal listening. You won't get any standouts without an equalizer...you can hear everything across the entire range.
The SRH-1440 sounds like a SRH-1840 from lows to mids, but sounds like a SRH-940 in the highs -- but overall very similar to the 1840 except for the brightness. Enter the spare earpads.
