My eyes are bleeding and I've spent way too long here, but I managed to read all 107 pages of this thread.. ouch.
Anyway, I've been looking for my first set of 'real' headphones, and the Shure SRH840 seem like they might be it. Full details of what I was looking for are in my thread here.
Despite all the conflicting info and contradictory impressions, I hope they're what I'm looking for. Mainly, I am looking for something that's not as retardedly bright as the Grado 225's, but not as relaxed as the Senn HD580's. Something like the Senns with more forward mids without the massive bass of the PX100's would be something that seems perfect for me, for listening to mostly Jpop.
Would I be making the right choice? What do you guys think?
Also, are any of the previously mentioned discounts still active? I'm seeing $200 everywhere, but I'm not sure if anyone is still taking discount offers/quotes, like NLS's ridiculous $118 price quote. I'd jump on those if it's still active.
