A bit underwhelming

Let me start by saying, I own quite a few Marshall products that I truly love. I had hoped these would offer the same great sound quality as the many other products I own. Unfortunately they did not live up to my expectations. The build quality is nice they are comfortable and will fit a multitude of head sizes and shapes, but that’s about it. I was disappointed as soon as I opened the box. No case? I know it seems a bit trivial, but i like to be able to keep my headphones and any cables that go with them together when not in use. Secondly the ear pieces are rather small in comparison to any other over the ear headphones I’ve owned. They however fit my 2yr olds ears pretty well, so not a total loss. Sound quality was pretty underwhelming as well, even after adjusting the EQ in the downloadable app I could never get the depth and clarity I was expecting. As a user that listens to music 12-16hrs a day through headphones or in the car, sound quality is very important to me and unfortunately these fell short. They do offer some pretty cool features though. Extremely long battery life, wired or wireless connection and also the ability to link another wired set of headphones. This is great for plane rides with the kids. I really wanted to like these headphones but unfortunately they fell short for me. They will however be used by my kids, so not a total loss. However there are far worse products out there at the same price point or higher.
Hi Heather, thanks for your review. The Major V are an on-the-ear model: the ear cushions will be smaller when compared to an on-ear model and they will sit on the ears rather than over the ears. It sounds like the Monitor II ANC are more suited to your preferences: they are an over-ear model, come with a carrying pouch and offer ANC.

The Marshall Major V has surprisingly impressed me for a set of on ear headphones at this price range. With Marshall products you come to expect a certain build quality & user experience and this product does not differ from that regard.
The Marshall Major V follow the same design as most Marshall products and you can tell from a visual standpoint this looks simiyto most Marshall products which is not a negative thing in my opinion.
You get the Marshall logo on each side of the ear cups and the headband, what seem to be covered in faux leather that do a good job of looking like the real thing. There is a customizable “M” you can use to set your favorite function. There is also a nice gold control knob that works like a joy stick to control playback actions. Using the Marshall app you can adjust your EQ settings as well. Marshall’s product description states the Major V have 100+ hours of wireless playback. Things I like about the Major V are they are lightweight, fold up compact, sound great for the price point, don’t look cheap and great battery life.
