Marshall’s Major III headphones crank up audio quality, keep classic design

Marshall’s first take on its Major headphones weren’t as impressive as we expected, but the company remedied that with the Major II. Not only did the second generation deliver on the promise of the original headphones, but they also introduced a wireless model. Now Marshall is delivering its latest iteration of the line with the Major III headphones, which is available in both wired and wireless models.At first glance, you’d be forgiven for assuming that not much has changed in the Marshall Major III headphones, but the company just didn’t want to mess with the classic look it had established with the earlier iterations. The updated Major III headphones pack in new 40mm drivers that the company says have been carefully tuned for improved audio performance over the Major II, with a clear, more defined sound that doesn’t sacrifice when it comes to low-end thump.
