Back after 7 years - any good Shure 1540 replacements?
Was just about to order new ear pads again for the good old SRH-1540s when I noticed "You last purchased this item on April 5, 2014." - feels like it was just last year. Huh. I obviously love these things but they're not in the best shape anymore, so I was doing some trawling around trying to...- TheAdmiralty

Back Again - (Re)Intro + SRH-1540 Upgrade
Evening again, everyone! Been a while since I've floated around here. Good to be back. :beerchug: Just graduated with a BS in Computer Engineering and am heading cross country to start at a defense contractor, and I thought it's about time to pick myself up something nice as a bit of a...- TheAdmiralty

CM6631A / USB Interface?
Evening, gentlemen! I'm a computer engineering student here at the university, and have recently set out on the mission of making myself a desktop DAC/Amp combo just for the heck of it. I could list off the design if anyone's interested, but I'll keep it out of this post so things stay...- TheAdmiralty

SRH-940 Driver Transplant Time
Hey guys! Well, the day is finally about to come when the headband on my poor old 940s finally fails entirely - a few hairline cracks around the swivels are really starting to open up and things aren't looking good. Since I have my new Noble N5W's, though, I figure why not see if I can't...- TheAdmiralty

Still Upgrade Time for the 940s, $1000 Budget
You people can't get rid of me around this section, can you? Well, I'm back again, still looking to upgrade the same pair of SRH-940s that I was looking to replace several months ago.

Back Again: SRH 940 Replacement Time
I'm not sure I've ever seen one person carry on so many different threads as I have with discussions on what to do next about my aging SRH-940s. I'll try to break this one up and make it a bit easier to read this time. What I have / What I've Done: Since you guys get ten thousand new...- TheAdmiralty

Next $500 Investment: SRH-1540, or Amp/DAC Setup?
Well, here I am again. Right now, I'm listening to my beloved SRH-940s, which are unfortunately starting to physically wear out. Shure just didn't build these things to last. Right now I have $350 saved up, and will be dumping another $150 into that once I get some junk sold off. I've got...- TheAdmiralty

SRH-1540 vs 940?
Howdy! Got this year's tax return check back, and as a college student with nothing to do, what better use than a new pair of headphones? Right now, I have a pair of Shure 940s - they're great, if not a little too thin and treble-positive. Before them I had a pair of M50s, which were...- TheAdmiralty

SRH-940 Replacement Time
Howdy! Well, around the middle of last year, I bought myself a pair of SRH-940s; they replaced a set of ATH-M50s that I loved literally to death... the things were just starting to fall apart from how much I used them. I absolutely love the 940s, a lot more so than my old M50s... I do miss...- TheAdmiralty

SRH940 - Need a better source. What to do?
Hello again! I've got an interesting choice to make. I recently upgraded from a pair of ATH-M50's to a pair of Shure SRH-940's, and it was probably one of the biggest improvements I've ever heard. I disagree with a lot of what I'm hearing about their bass being too thin; now, I go...- TheAdmiralty

ATH-M50 Upgrade Time
Hello again! It's time again for a headphone upgrade; I've had my good old Audio Technica M50s for a few years now, and all of the pleather is starting to wear off of them... I could always spend $20 on a replacement set of pads, but where's the fun in that when you could get a whole new...- TheAdmiralty
