Not only do you get updated sound, but you also get a new design, not to mention increased durability and improved ergonomics, which will certainly give way to a whole new level of listening experience.
Sound Advancements
Additionally, the Marshall Major II headphones are built to last, offering advanced sound features that include customized drivers, allowing it to deliver deeper bass, as well as additional extended detailed highs, a refined mid-range and an overall lower distortion.

Marshall even throws in a carrying ease.

About Marshall Headphones:
Marshall is a true rock legend. That uniquely clear and expressive sound combined with a mythical stage presence has enraptured music fans around the world for five decades. We’re celebrating the brand’s rich heritage with commemorative products that live and breathe Marshall.
The legacy begins in a small drum shop in Hanwell in the 1960s, where Jim Marshall sought to give a bunch of then-local guitarists the sound they wanted – a sound that was harder, crunchier and richer. The result was the JTM45, an amp that reverberated with a sound that was much heavier than anything ever heard before. And in a twist of rock and roll fate – those guitarists, much like the Marshall name, would go on to revolutionize music forever.
