    Never used the Shures, but we’ve just reviewed the XD2-53s: http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2012/04/review-video-allen-heath-xone-xd2-53-headphones-2/

    The Shure DJ headphones you linked are extremely good. Be warned, along with their SRH440/840 monitors, however that they have a flat, neutral sound. They are well-made and sound great.

    thanks that helps. I’m not completely sold on buying the Shure’s just quite yet but that definately helps hearing it from someone that has used it

    Shure Headphones are AMAZING headphones…but i think they are geared towards more studio than DJing as the post above said they have a very flat response. Shure is known for studio/performance headphones and are more commonly found in other music genres…rock…metal…pop, for the headphones to goto…I think the only other headphones that compare would be ultimate ears…but then u are going to be spending over 1000 for them.

    Good to know, thank you. I always thought that Shure was better for mics. After looking around I think I might go with the XD2-53. Phil’s review was actually really helpful. I tried some on and they are extremely comfortable and feel very sturdy. I don’t feel like they would break like the Pioneer HDJ-1000’s
