About this deal

For longer outdoor phonecalls you might find it preferable to use the microphone that’s built into the 3.5 mm cable that comes included with the headphones. Passive noise cancellation is never a strong point of on-ear headphones, but the Marshall Major IIIs are particularly disappointing in this regard. We tried them in the office and could still easily hear people’s conversations, meaning you’d have to really blast your music if you wanted to drown out the outside world. There’s no active noise cancellation option offered here, which isn’t surprising considering this is seen as more of an entry level pair from Marshall. For active noise cancellation, you’re going to have to stump up the cash for the enjoyable and premium Marshall Mid ANCs.

Another attractive feature is the ability to share your audio using the included 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio cable. Plug the cable into the Major IV, connect it to any pair of headphones with a 3.5mm port and whatever you’re listening to will be played through the other device as well. A section of the cable stretches so you don’t have to worry about pulling the headphones off your head if one of you moves, which is a nice touch. Opportunities to take advantage of such a feature may not present themselves too often – particularly at the moment – but it’s a thoughtful and useful inclusion nonetheless.

Stylish headphones for guitar heroes

We also wanted to try music with a wider range of frequencies and timbres, so we had a listen to ‘A Day In The Life’ from The Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band, and we were really impressed with the depth and clarity of the bass guitar, as well as the warmth of the brass sections. However, if you like to lend your ears to the Classical music genre you won't be quite so enamored with the sound imbalance.The Marshall Mids grab soaring high notes out of songs and stamp them down flat, ruining their impact. Tune into excellent audio and experience rich sound with the Marshal wireless headphones. These headphones feature the iconic Marshall design and are made of durable material. They feature an ergonomic design and comfortable fit to ensure you experience no discomfort even with long hours of usage. These wireless headphones function via Bluetooth technology so that you can enjoy your favorite melodies without the hassle of entangled cables. You can also use these headphones to wirelessly make and receive phone calls or use the detachable 3.5 mm audio cable for the same purpose. Based on your preference, you can choose from the on-ear variants like the Mid A.N.C. or the in-ear headphones such as the Minor II. You can buy the Marshall wireless headphones online across e-stores for convenient home delivery services. When it comes to testing the best Marshall headphones, we first and foremost took a dive into their audio delivery. As you'd expect with a product carrying the Marshall name, we have high expectations due to their legendary status in the music world and it was the obvious place to start. Considering how good the sound quality is, and how stylish they look, it’s a crying shame that the Marshall Minor IIs are so uncomfortable - even wearing them for 30 minutes gave us pain in our jaw and temples, and they left our ears feeling really tender and sore. Not exactly what you would expect for the price tag.

Over the course of the decade, the Major series has dropped its 3.5mm cable in favour of a Bluetooth connection, but the basic premise remains unchanged: on-ear headphones created to reflect the renowned guitar amp manufacturer’s heritage.Marshall’s most obvious competitor in the headphone market is JBL, a brand which also comes with considerable live music credibility. JBL offers a comparable mix of headphone styles, but somehow the Marshall design just feels a little more granular – they get you closer to the stage. Who owns Marshall Amplification? That being said, if your ears are (ahem) on the larger side, you may find the in-ears really comfortable, but as the casing size can’t be altered and Marshall don't provide any other sized ear tips in the box, they’re not going to work for everyone. Where these headphones fall down is in the bass department, with slightly rolled-off frequencies which bassheads probably won’t appreciate. We tried out James Blake’s ‘If The Car Beside You Moves Ahead’ to put the bass frequencies to the test, and found the usually-body-thumping bass drum was pretty underwhelming. However, for general use, the sound is warm and balanced enough to give you a great listening experience.
