The SRH1540 is not inferior to the SRH1840 both are the new flagships from Shure, however the 1540 is the 'closed' model and the 1840 is the 'open' model.
For the €500 you spend, you do get a pearl of headphones that you can enjoy for years to come. Do you use it for the phone? Then a mobile amplifier/DAC is highly recommended, and Tidal too, because with these headphones you will hear the difference between lossless and 320Kb/s (the maximum of Spotify).
Most importantly, it is a balanced pair of headphones. A miss for some, especially people who want more of a booming bass than a musical bass.
Although this model does not have active noise canceling, you don't need it, as soon as the music plays, there is no longer a world around you.

The Shure SRH 1540 fully meets my expectations. I've been impressed with my Shure SE 530 in-ear earphones for years and, as earphones don't feel so comfortable after a while, I was looking for a pair of headphones of comparable quality. The SRH 1540 sounds even better: detailed and balanced. The music sounds as it should be, aggressive music sounds aggressive, relaxing music sounds relaxing and sultry music sounds sultry. It is a bit of a shame to simply connect this Shure to, for example, an iPhone. Then he doesn't come into his own. That's why I use the AudioQuest DragonFly Red DAC/headphone amplifier in combination with the iPhone. Then enjoy!

Very nice product to look at and super sound to use. (My experience with AKG k701 and k551 has a negative effect, so that I perceive/experience more bass reproduction with the Shure, AKG is very bass neutral, but is not disturbing) nevertheless, the Shure does sound very realistic and gives peace in the music (nice balance ) you can use it for hours on end due to both the beautiful music balance and the pleasant feeling of wearing it on the other hand.
