Frequently asked questions about this product
What is the difference between the SRH840A and tracking headphones?
It is optimised for critical listening and studio monitoring — mixing and mastering — rather than simply for recording. Its response is described as accurate and balanced, with rich bass, clear mids and extended highs.
What does matched drivers mean?
That the two 40 mm drivers have been selected in pairs so that they behave the same way on the left and on the right. On mixing headphones this is crucial: any difference between the two channels would distort every panning judgement.
Does the SRH840A cable stay in place during a session?
Yes, it is locking: it attaches firmly to the ear cup and does not come unplugged with a careless movement. It is nonetheless detachable, and therefore replaceable — and an extra straight cable comes with the headphones.
What is in the box of the Shure SRH840A?
The headphones, a detachable cable, a carrying bag, a gold-plated threaded 6.35 mm jack adapter and the documentation. The bag matters for headphones that travel back and forth between the studio and home.
Are these studio headphones easy to carry around?
Yes, they are foldable, and their carrying bag is included. Shure highlights a design that withstands the rigours of everyday use: studio headphones get handled far more than listening headphones.
Does the SRH840A block out room noise?
Its design is closed-back circumaural: the ear cushions surround the ear and reduce background noise, without any electronics. There is no active noise cancellation — and that is intentional, since no processing should colour what you are judging by ear.
Does the headband stay comfortable over a long mixing session?
It is padded, and that is the point Shure highlights for extended sessions, with ear cups that rest comfortably around the ear. This is the criterion that separates two studio headphones of comparable sound quality.

Airy and wide without giving up all isolation: the 50 mm drivers cover 10 Hz to 30 kHz, with bass that is present but controlled and readable mids. It plugs straight into a computer.
Swapping cables takes a second: 3 m straight in the studio, coiled in the field. The 40 mm drivers with neodymium magnets reach up to 24 kHz, and the ear cups swivel 90° for one-ear monitoring.
No dedicated amplifier needed: it plugs straight into a smartphone, a tablet or a laptop with no loss of volume. The 50 mm drivers cover 10 Hz to 25 kHz and the 3 m cable can be replaced if it breaks.
Sixteen hours of playback per charge, and a folding design that makes it fit in a bag. Made from 100% recycled GRS-certified plastic, for 167 g on the head.
One earcup swivels 90° to listen with a single ear and keep the other on the booth, the DJ's gesture. Response reaches 22 kHz and isolation stays tight: the same model moves from mixing to tracking to the booth.
Microsoft Teams certified, for calls and concentration in an open-plan office: noise-cancelling microphone, leatherette ear cushions that damp the background noise and an in-line controller for volume, calls and mute.
Volume and mute are set straight on the cable, with an indicator light as a reminder that the mic is off. Padded leatherette earpads and 2.4 m of cable to stand up during a call.
Plug them into a phone with no headphone jack: a built-in audio converter and two drivers per earbud, of 11 and 8 mm, deliver clear, balanced sound. Microphone and three-button remote on the braided cable.
Light, with swivelling foam earpads and an adjustable headband: it can be worn for hours through online meetings. The swivelling noise-cancelling mic tucks into the headband once the call is over.
Two beamforming microphones on an extended boom filter out office noise during calls. Up to 20 h of listening or 16 h of talk time, and 5 minutes of charging gives back 1 h of call time.
