Review by CNET
The good: The uniquely attractive Marshall Major headphones eliminate
outside noise and exhibit an ample sound stage that complements any type of
music.
The bad: The vinyl ear cushions retain heat and the over-ear design can
be uncomfortable after several hours of continual use.
The bottom line: The Marshall Major headphones live up to
Marshall's strong legacy with a familiar shape and excellent acoustics to match
its line of amps.
“The closed-back, on-ear Marshall Majors headphones carry noise-canceling
functionality for your ride to work, school, and anywhere in between. The Majors
deliver excellent sound detail and functional design elements like a
Tolex-wrapped headband and a knurled cable jack that are synonymous with the
Marshall name. With few complaints – aside from fit issues and hot ears after
prolonged listening – the Marshall Major headphones provide sartorial flair
and brilliant tonal capacity and would make a worthwhile buy for your next pair
of headphones.”
