Shure upgrades SRH Series Headphones with fresh new design

Shure has unveiled new enhancements and improvements to its portfolio of SRH Headphones, including ‘significant’ product design upgrades and nuanced improvements to sound quality.

The new models, both optimised for critical listening and studio monitoring, incorporate a series of design upgrades, including lower harmonic distortion and more precise left-right driver matching.

The SRH840A offers a precisely tailored frequency response powered by 40mm neodymium dynamic drivers designed to deliver rich bass, a clear mid-range, and extended highs, while the wide, padded headband and collapsible design combine to create a versatile, comfortable experience for extended listening sessions.

The SRH440A meanwhile is designed to deliver detailed frequency response with accurate audio for podcasting, home recording, and critical editing and mixing. Shure says its consistent and uncoloured sound response provides an appropriate representation of the sound, making it an ideal fit for talent in a recording session.

Both the SRH440A and SRH840A also incorporate a new sleek, industrial design with matte finish to withstand the rigours of constant use, as well as a straight cable to offer more mobility in creative spaces.

“Today’s consumers are seeking high-quality audio without sacrificing style and comfort,” said Sean Sullivan, Global Product Manager, Listening Products, at Shure. “This upgrade delivers just that — a low-profile design that looks great on camera and improved acoustics to ensure clean, and consistent audio reproduction. Recording professionals and content creators will benefit from professional headphones that include Shure’s iconic sound signature and a fresh, modern design.”

Shure’s SRH440A Headphones are available for a retail price of £89 / $99 / €99. Purchase includes the headphones, a detachable, straight nine-foot locking bayonet cable, and a threaded gold stereo 1/8” to 1/4” adapter.
