The New King of Closed Back Headphones for around $150!!! Jan 26, 2010
By Andromeda
First off let me say I own the Shure 440 and 840, I am not fond of either of them. I find their sound to be too powerful and harsh, especially their bass. People claim it to be accurate, but how can this be if nearly everyone agrees the Bass on them both is just incredibly powerful and too harsh at times. Thankfully, Shure listened to its buyers and made the SRH750DJ. Out of the box they sound okay, nothing special. However after 50 hours of burn in, everything improved drastically. Like the difference between night and day. This set is geared for listening to music, where as the 440 and 840 are really not meant for that, they are monitors, meant to pick out subtle abnormalities in music track editing, like static and pops and such. The 750DJ is purely geared for musical experience, even though the box says they are monitors, too. Sure they can be used as that, as any headphone set can, but they are a total 180 degree turn from the 840.
They come with extra ear pads, which i am sorry to say right out of the box are incredibly uncomfortable. They are stiff and hard, but after some usage and clamping them onto a box or something for a day or two, they break in and become very comfortable. I was incredibly worried about the circular design of the earcups not fitting my ears. By the looks of things, the cups seemed pretty small in comparison to the 840 and 440...they are smaller, but totally circular but still fully over my ears. The downside to this is that my ears have a fraction of an inch clearance, almost no space left, my ears just fit. They are DJ headphones anyway, really meant to be slung down on your neck and have 1 earcup pressed up against your ear. So I suppose it wasnt meant to support average sized peoples heads and fully cover their ears...either that or i am a freak and my ears are huge, which they dont appear to be.
The 750s are comparable to the Denon D1001. The sound is similar, just bigger and more powerful all around, with MUCH more bass. And I mean it...much more. Enough to melt your face off if you wanted and had the right EQ. The bass is nothing like the 440 or 840, not even remotely. Its clean and beautiful and not at all harsh even on heavy bass tracks. They can handle high outputs of power, but remain easily driven by my sansa fuze without a problem. Doesnt sound as nice through my sansa as it does amped of course, but still, i am incredibly impressed with their ability to sound that nice and powerful via an mp3 player with no amp at all. The 440 and 840 fail miserably with no amp. The 750dj pass with flying colors. The Denons are more comfortable without question. But in the near future I expect the 750djs to become superior after sufficient burn in and usage. My denon D1001 and Shure 440/840 are no good for acoustic jazz or classical. Their soundstage is pretty awful for those genres of music. However, the 750DJs can power through nearly every type of genre i toss at it and still sound just awesome. This is something anyone with the above models in their inventory will recognize immediately. "Whoa, they sound great with my Superman the Movie soundtrack!!!" AWESOME! While the soundstage is just not as broad as the 840, is improved on the 440 and flat out KO'ed the Denon d1001. Thats not even fair to compare.
What bothers me is this fetish with stock cables and the bayonet locker. Like the 440 and 840, the cable is unique and twist-locks into place for security. I made a mistake in buying a 3.5mm to 3.5mm mini to mini 3 foot cable of my own to use instead of its stock coiled cable. Turns out its a requires a 2.5mm, not a standard mini. Back to radio shack i suppose, bothersome but understandable.
The headband is likely going to be modded very soon. It offers almost no support at all, and has s strange texture on the fabric. I've a buzz cut hairstyle and it kind of grinds on my head, and its really annoying. The clamp factor is pretty good, meaning they dont vice grip your head like some other headphones...coughcough 440/840,es7coughcough...They are somewhat heavy, but not the heaviest ive used.
The sound isolation is pretty good, id say 40% reduction. They tend to get hot, after all they are full sized over the ears and closed backs...you cannot avoid this.
Overall they are a fantastic buy. HIGHLY recommended if you want to buy via Shure. In my humbled opinion, the Shure 750DJ are an overall better choice for the budget of $100-150. The Denon D1001 was king of closed backs for around $100-150, now hail the new king SRH750dj!!! live long, and prosper!

It's all about the bass Aug 13, 2010
By RT
"gadget guy"
The Shure 750DJ headphones are the top model in Shure's line targetting toward professional DJ use....that is, people that make their bucks spinning music that you want to dance to at your next party.
Disclaimer: I am not a DJ, so I won't try to speak for the professionals. I did buy this headphone just to try out because I already gave an excellent review for their monitor series SRH840 model and I was wanted to see how this differs from that offering. This headphone is meant for DJ use, and I did talk to a couple of people who have done some DJ'ing and offered me some perspectives on what they look out for:
- Ability to withstand the rigors of use. These headphones are a tool, so it has to be durable, withstanding some accidental abuse, and is easily transportable to the venue. These headphones do look sturdy enough, there are no parts that will snap easily, the replaceable cable uses a bayonet locking mechanism and is detachable. The headband can be manhandled and bent and it doesn't lose its shape easily. The headphone comes with extra ear cushions, and there is a vinyl bag that keeps everything together. The headphone folds into a compact shape, swinging upward into the headband area.
- Fit. These headphones clamp onto your headphone nice and securely, especially for one sided listening (you have swung the other earpiece off one ear to monitor). However, for regular listening, I found that on my size 7 3/4 head, even at maximum extension, they are borderline too small for my head, the earcup arms need more extension range. For extended listening, my head did feel a bit irritated due pretty tight clamping force. Grade = B- because they are a bit too tight on my big head.
- Sound isolation. These are good in that they block up to 30dB of sound in the treble range, and around 15dB in the midrange. They don't filter anything below 200Hz. Grade = A-
- Sound quality: These are definitely tailored toward DJ use as they have an noticeable emphasis in the bass. Their measurements show that the bass response is rock solid down into subwoofer territory of below even 20Hz. Response in the bass region of 20-200 Hz show that the response is elevated at least 10dB compared to the rest of the spectrum. So it's all about the bass here. The bass quality is quite decent, no obvious resonances, and because of the elevated response, bass is clear and omnipresent at all times, which is important in any loud venue. For general listening, the bass did seem to drown out the vocals significantly. In the upper ranges, treble is well controlled and almost a bit too laid back, there is a slight dullness to the shimmering of cymbals. The whole frequency spectrum is represented well enough, and except for the obvious bass centric sound, everything is basically there. Grade B+ for DJ use. For a general use music headphone other than pop or dance music, I suggest you look at the Shure SRH840
- Build quality - These headphones look great in pictures and from far away, they look like serious equipment, but they are pretty much all plastic and the metallic looking bits are just silver paint molded plastics. The joints and overall structure does creak a lot as you handle them. All in all, don't expect build quality that exceeds the price. Grade = B-
So all in all, these headphones do live up to their billing as DJ use tools. I think most people are better off with other more balanced headphones if you don't earn a living spinning vinyl.

 Great performance, but lackluster quality Jan 27, 2011
By Ralph
Let me just say, these headphones sound GREAT. Before these, I owned a pair of Bose Triport over-the-ear style headphones, and while the improvement is not worth ditching your old pair (except in my case: the Bose ones finally died after 3 years), there IS some added bass, which is great. Also loved is the detachable cord, and the swiveling ear cups.
The reason these don't get 5 stars is because the build quality and comfort just isn't all that. After about 50-60 hours of use, I can say that these are not as comfortable as the Bose, due to a much stiffer foam in the ear pads. Also, it is entirely made of plastic, which sometimes creaks when the headphones shift on your head. But my biggest complaint of all would be that the plastic on the adjustable piece on the sides cracked the first week! Nothing some super glue couldn't fix, but it's not something that bodes well for my experience with them down the road.
Overall, I wish I would have spent a bit more money and purchased some headphones with a better build quality. Luckily, the only category I'm not disappointed with is the sound quality, which I would say is the most important.

 Shure stinks Oct 12, 2011
By Compute
These headphones broke in three months of casual use. The cheap plastic in the adjuster piece cracked and rendered the headphones useless. I'm going to have to deal with manufacture to get a replacement. Also the foam ear pieces fall off easily.

 Shure does it again Apr 20, 2010
By S. Dolgolevskiy
"PdtS"
Great DJ/studio/home headphones, light, durable (Sony and Technics users, hint-hint), great sound quality and outside isolation. Absolutely can't be beat in they price range.
Definitely not for everyday outside use as they are huge on head and ears get hot very quickly under the leather in summer. Also, resistance might be a little high for some less powerful players, which makes them sound not as loud as they would on proper equipment.
Just another awesome professional tool from Shure.
