It's November 15, which means Marshall is finally lifting the
cardboard veil away from its debut personal headgear products. The
headliner is unsurprisingly titled the Major, which is the collapsible
set of cans you see above. It comes with both 3.5mm and 6.3mm (via an
adapter) connectability as well as "super soft" cushions to keep your
ears cozy. The exterior of the headband's made up of the same vinyl
Marshall uses on its amplifiers, for that extra sense of familiarity,
and the price is set at 99, whether you're talking euros or dollars.
Similarly currency-agnostic is the Minor set of in-ear drivers,
pictured below, which comes in at 59 eurodollars. For that you'll get
a tangle-resistant fabric cord with an integrated mic, a patented
EarClick system for securing the buds in your ear, and the admiration
of consumer types everywhere. Or you would if they hadn't already sold
out.
