Hello world of head-fi!
I read tons of stuff off head-fi and felt that now is the time when I really need to post to ask for your help.
I wish to upgrade from a K240 Studio and after even months of research I got to these two headphones. Dispite the fact that the SHURE is closed and the BEYER is semi-open i found them to be very similar and no one compared them yet.
Since I don't have a powerfull headphone amp (I have a E-MU 0204 soundcard wich has a litlle amp in it) I had to chose the 32 ohm version of the BEYER and I'm not really interested in the 250 and 600 versions.
So I'm asking the more experienced ones to point out the main differences, advantages and cons of both. Compare them from all important view's. Maybe suggest other ones. Don't bother with open ones cause my environment won't let me use those.
By looking at Headrooms freq response it concludes that the SRH 940 is bassier but from what I red the Beyer's seemd bassier.
I'm not a basshead btw I just loved the K240 bass and missed the highs a bit. So I'm looking for the most improvements as I can get. After all these are in the most expensive categories that I would want to still reach. I live in Romania and from here both cost about the same amount : 260 euro at the moment (370 usd)
The most important genre's for me are: classical, hip hop, and rock. In my opinion if these sound grate than all sounds grate.
