They're all I use.Yep, nothing fancy but nice cable. Decently priced too.

I have had them for a long time, I only listen to them. Want more bass. Does anyone know where the bass is more in the dt770pro 250 or shure1540?
Me too.I really dig these. The imaging is kind of insane for a closed back, I’ve never experienced anything quite like it.
Circling back after a few weeks of listening, these are very weird. I like them, but I absolutely would not mix music on these, there’s a bit of extra energy in the upper mid range that would still make these good for tracking or monitoring yourself in the studio, if they are way too dark to trust the mix, so it’s a bit surprising they are marketed for that.

I dunno, both Shure’s official website for the model says it’s intended for engineers and Sweetwater is marketing them as ideal for studio monitors. Most retailers have some sort of language saying they’re intended for studio use.Personally, I’ve never seen any suggestion by Shure that the SRH1540s were to be used for studio work. They are tuned very differently from the SRH940s, which are labeled by Shure for studio work.

Believe it or not, the Meze 109 Pro headphones have more thump. They are also clearer, more expansive, and do well at moderate to higher volumes. They're also substantially more money, especially with the Meze copper upgrade cable.You must not have noticed that Shure described the SRH1540’s bass as “warm”, which it very definitely is…
I don't own the DT770 so I can't do the comparison, but the SRH-1540 can be fatiguing if you play at very high levels. At moderate to high levels they are fine. If you are the type that always listens at close 90db or more then you should probably skip the 1540. Personally I don't find them fatiguing for my use case which includes many different types of music, but I mostly listen in the 70-80db range with headphones.I wish someone can do a comparison of the 1540 and the DT770 80 ohm. I think I'd like the Shure but I've read some people say they can be a bit fatiguing at times. I own the DT770 and really like them, they're not fatiguing for me personally, the bass is immensely enjoyable too.
Thanks And in terms of price, with headphones like Fidelio X2 and Jubilee 58x available for 150 dollars, do you think in all honestly the Shure is worth its retail price? I'm talking over 400 euros here.I don't own the DT770 so I can't do the comparison, but the SRH-1540 can be fatiguing if you play at very high levels. At moderate to high levels they are fine.
