Hey,
Yesterday I bought Shure SRH - 440 headphones.
 
I read somewhere that with the SRH840 pads the headphones are more comfortable and the sound is better.
 
Would you recommend to replace the ear pads to the SRH840 ones or the SRH940 one ?
 
Which one of the pads is better ? more comfortable and better sound quality ?
 
Thank you,
Noam

I've not used the 940 pads, but I have the 840 pads on my 440s. They're far more comfortable, and they bring out the bass slightly on the 440s. I can't speak to how the 940 pads sound, but many people like the velour vs the pleather that is on 440/840 pads. I'd recommend the upgrade on the comfort factor alone.

So the sound quality is not much better ?

If you're looking for more bass out of your 440s, then yes that improves. It doesn't magically make them sound better across the spectrum, it just gives them a small, needed bass boost.
