Marshall Headphones: Major and Minor Reviews

When In Manila and looking for some headsets that have both beauty and brains….. then the Marshall Earphones are for you!

One of the cool things about blogging is that I get to try out so cool things! From new adventures to slick new gadgets, I get a first hand look at all the newest thingamajigs.

Now add to being a blogger is my other role of being a radio DJ. Here, I’m always in need of a good pair of headsets for myself or for work. I need them to use when I monitor our transmissions, to hear the music and to really listen to everything that goes on when we’re live on air. Another thing I really need a cool pair of headsets is when we have cool guests on our show. I need to give them something cool and presentable to use as they guest on our radio program, The Wake Up Show on Mellow 94.7

We have a new segment called “DJ for a Day” where we ask interesting celebrities to come be a DJ with us for one day. Here’s Saab Magalona using the slick Marshall headphones for a day.

Marshall was spawned in the early 1960’s by Jim Marshall who, by request from young guitarists Pete Townshend and Richie Blackmore, started selling guitar equipment in his drum store.

Jim Marshall soon begun building his own amplifiers and thanks to his unprejudiced mind combined with certain twists of electrical fate the Marshall amplifiers were blessed with a sound much heavier than anything heard before. The Marshall sound was born and the tone for the future of rock ‘n’ roll had been set.

The revolutionizing Marshall amplifiers were soon picked up by the era’s most progressive rock ‘n’ roll rebels. The Who, Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton were some of the legends to be who felt that they could use the Marshall sound to change popular music into something completely new. Marshall’s keen ear to the demands of these artists together with unforeseen changes in production and materials kept the Marshall sound evolving, entangled as one with that of rock ‘n’ roll.

The Major encloses vast amounts of the massive Marshall legacy. The exterior of the headband is made out of the same vinyl used in Marshall amplifiers and it bears the original Marshall texture. Besides being straight up dazzling.

The Major is a solid workhorse with great stamina, designed with non-stop, all-day listening in mind.

On the other hand, there’s also the Marshall Minor.

The Minor is an advanced and hard working in-ear model. In addition to its good looks it incorporates quite a few exciting features. EarClick is a patent that ingeniously secures the earphone into position in your ear. The Minor comes equipped with microphone and remote for use with your cell phone*. Combined with excellent audio and a tangle resistant fabric cord the Minor is in it for the long haul.
