Marshall Headphones
Marshall Amplifications, a British firm famous for its amplification systems, made history decades ago with great amplifiers with supreme sound, never heard before because there wasn’t any sacrifice in the sound quality. The Marshall Amplifiers gave birth to a sound called “The Marshall Sound” by many.
Marshall Headphones
Marshall Headphones sport every feature that Marshall is famous for. Sporting an old-school retro design, the Marshall Major headphones are pretty classy. Marshall Minor headphones, on the other hand, have a unique design that you would find eccentric. The Marshall Minor headphones resemble the design of Marshall Amplifiers. The bronze finish in the in-ear monitors of the headsets gives them a sleek look. The in-ear monitors of the Marshall Minor headphones have a flat exterior.
Marshall Major White headphones
For a traveler, this is one of the coolest headphones to go for. The square ear cups, the white-brown-gold color combo with an elegantly branded Marshall logo on the earcups, adds to the style of the Major White headphones, which sport an old-school look. The Marshall Major white headphones work perfectly alright with any 3.5 mm or 6.3 mm Music player. The square earcups with soft cushions would rest comfortably on your ears.\
With a maximum input power of 20 mW and a 40mm dynamic moving coil speaker, the Marshall Major offers excellent sound with optimum quality. From a traveler’s perspective, Marshall Major white is very much portable, primarily due to its collapsible build. The headphone can be folded to a much smaller size, hence easier for transportation as well as storage.
However, it does have a few cons. The term “Major” in the name is pretty useless when you consider that the Marshall Major White headphones wouldn’t be much comfortable for people with big heads, as the headphone is pretty tiny. Another con is the irritation caused by the leather ear cups if you use them for long hours. It would be warm and irritating soon.
Marshall Minor White headphones
With the tangle-free braided cabling, quality build, thin, sleek design, and the perfect mix of gold and white colors, the Marshall Minor White headphones are preferable to over-the-ear headphones from a traveler’s point of view. It sports a 15.4mm dynamic moving coil speaker and a maximum input power of 5 mW.
Pros of Marshall Minor white
- Impressive sound quality
- Tangle free cables
- Interchangeable ear tips
- Sleek design
- Affordable price tag
This means Marshall White Minor is a good travel partner, but mind you, this headphone needs some attention. While you use it in your travels, don’t expect it to perform well in the Noise isolation category, which is the only major demerit of the headphone. But still, it’s not that bad.
Conclusion
Both Marshall Major white and Minor white headphones are iPhone 4 compatible, offer excellent sound quality for which Marshall is famous, sport neat and good-looking designs, comfortable fit, and great portability. If you prefer more sound, use the Major headphones with the square earcups.
If you don’t prefer a not so big headphones in your travels, Marshall Minor white headphones would be a good choice, although they wouldn’t be handy in a boisterous environment.
