Marshall Mid Bluetooth
Marshall announced its newest top-of-the-line
pair of Bluetooth headphones dubbed the Marshall Mid Bluetooth. In essence, they take
the look of the over-ear Marshall Monitor line, shrink them down to an on-ear
size, and add the same hardware from the earlier Major II Bluetooth (which are
simply wireless versions of the wired Major II model).
Aside from the new design, the internal hardware is
extremely similar between the two Bluetooth models. Like the Major II
Bluetooth, the Mid Bluetooth offers 40mm dynamic drivers, Bluetooth AptX audio,
and claims of 30-plus hours of battery life. And both the Major II Bluetooth
and Mid Bluetooth are on-ear headphones and use the same multidirectional brass
control knob.
The new Mid Bluetooth costs US$ 199, US$ 50 more than the virtually identical Major
II Bluetooth, which is a high price to pay for a little bit of style.
The Mid Bluetooth headphones are available now from
Marshall’s website.
