OK I am now looking at Sennheiser HD650's ($399) vs Shure SRH1540 ($499)

Any thoughts on these?
Thanks

Old sound systems and mixers wanted high impedance headphones.

For my EPM6 mixer (still sold), Soundcraft recommends greater than 150 ohms. Oddly, no company under the Harmon umbrella (notably AKG) makes such headphones. So Harmon sells a product for which you have buy a competitor's headphones (lower impedance does work, it's just not recommended).

I think Beyerdynamic are the only ones to still make high impedance phones.

My AKG K240's are 600ohm. Of course, they're about 15 years old. Maybe that's got something to do with it.

I was going to suggest the Ultrasone Pro 750's........excellent quality and very comfortable for long periods of usage . If the DT 770's don't work out, you always have choices. :))
