I suspect that the M40s primarily differ in that they use a smaller and
different driver. 40mm for the M40 and 45 mm for the M50s.

Hmm, if I recall I read *somewhere* that the HD-280 has 30mm drivers
and still sounds lightyears better than the m40. That dimension did
not come from the Sennheiser site, where it is suspiciously absent.
It could also depend on how the m40's transducers are aimed compared
to the aim of the HD-280s.
