Marshall goes from amplifying music for the masses to private headphones, earphones
When people think of the name Marshall in the context of music, they often picture stacks of amplifiers that are meant to amplify the sound of guitars so that anywhere from dozens to hundreds of thousands of people can hear it. Now Marshall is going from spreading the music to keeping it private.
On November 15, Marshall will introduce its first set of headphones. So far they're in testing, but we do know that Marshall will offer at least two models, an over-the-ear set of cans dubbed Major and in-the-ear units called Minor. Full specs haven't been released but Major will apparently have a gold-plated 1/4-inch plug and urethane pads.
Minor apparently has a unique Ear-Click design that helps keep the buds in your ear canal when you're working out. No other details are available, but we'd wager that both units will be pricier and better sounding than the white buds that came in that iPod or iPhone package.
