I bought the srh1540 2 days ago. First impressions: bass heavy, but very very rich on detail and very spacious. I also like the comfort very much.
My previous headphones were the AKG K553 pro, which have less bass and less detail, but are spacious also but have much more treble.
Comfort of the K553 is also less then the 1540.
I have also tried the Focal Spirit Professional, but i didnt like them because they were too tight on my head and pressed on my ears. The cups are too small for me.
One thing though, i am wearing the 1540 swapped: i have the left side (L) on the right ear and the right side (R) on the left ear. However did connect the cable the right way, the red connector is on my right.
They are much more comfortable to my head then they are 'right' way. Anyone else has this same 'issue'?
But overall, love these headphones, great detail!!
