The Shure SRH1840 Premium Open-Back Headphones deliver exceptional acoustic accuracy for critical listening and professional audio applications. Individually matched 40 mm neodymium drivers provide smooth extended highs, accurate bass response, and a wide stereo image with natural sound reproduction and increased depth of field.

Optimized for use with external headphone amplification systems, the SRH1840 features dual-exit detachable cables with gold-plated MMCX connectors for secure attachment and easy replacement. High-density slow-recovery foam velour ear pads and an ergonomic dual-frame padded headband provide all-day comfort. The system includes a hard storage case, replacement ear pads, and a threaded 1/4-inch adapter for versatile connectivity in professional environments.
