The Evolution of Sound: Marshall's Latest Wireless On-Ear Headphones

When legendary guitar manufacturer Marshall first decided to license a brand name for headphones and speakers a couple years ago, we were a little bit skeptical. However, so far everything the company has sent our way has been excellent, and their latest release, the Marshall Mid A Wireless, is no exception. The new wireless on-ear takes everything we liked about the company's previous wireless on ear model, the Major, and ups the ante with even more streamlined look and better sound right from the get-go.

One of the first things you'll notice when handling the new Marshall Mid A Wireless is its fresh personality. The company took the same black leather and brass colorway classic white Marshall logo and rectangular ear pads that used on the Major, but refined them to fit the shape of the ear cups and placement of the button. This results in a more modern-looking version of their predecessor, one that exudes style and sophistication. Another notable change is the solid metal lower bracket that replaces the flimsier pair of thick wires found on the previous model. Instead, the new design features a series of clicks for band adjustment, making it easier to customize the fit.

The addition of what used to be an odd-looking speaker wire sticking out at the top of the earphones has also been replaced with a more solid curlicue pattern. This nod to style is reminiscent of studio headphones from the 1970s, adding a touch of vintage flair to the design. The included 3.5 millimeter audio cable sports some of this old-school style as well, with brass accents on either end that recall quarter inch guitar keys in terms of usability. Another feature that has been retained is the pencil eraser style function button that we loved on the Major. However, this time it's been relocated to the back left of the right earphone for easier access.

One of the most impressive aspects of the Marshall Mid A Wireless is its sound quality. The headphones are extremely revealing and dynamic, providing shimmery highs, clear mids, and punchy bass with a subtlety that comes off as fun and energetic rather than manipulative. This results in a listening experience that feels like it's coming through a vintage tube amplifier, which is exactly what the brand aims to achieve. The 40 millimeter dynamic drivers are a key factor in this sound quality, allowing for an immersive and engaging listening experience.

In terms of usability, the Marshall Mid A Wireless offers several notable improvements over its predecessor. The battery life has been increased to 30 hours, providing ample time for extended listening sessions without needing to recharge. This is made possible by apt expla tooth technology, which allows for wireless streaming of higher quality audio for around 30 feet. Comfort also remains a top priority, with solid hattingh and a tight clamping force that creates some of the best noise isolation we've heard from an on-ear headphone.

However, it's worth noting that the headphones can be a bit uncomfortable during extended listening sessions due to their fit. But overall, these improvements make the Marshall Mid A Wireless a fantastic choice for anyone looking for an affordable set of on-ear headphones with good looks and real personality.
