Marshall Monitor III

Marshall and Green Day Frontman Launch Monitor III A.N.C. Headphones

Marshall and Billie Joe Armstrong have joined forces to launch the new Marshall Monitor III A.N.C. wireless headphones. The spatial audio headphones feature 70 hours of active noise-cancelling playtime and 100 hours without. The Green Day frontman leads Marshall’s new promotional campaign aimed at finding harmony among life’s chaos while celebrating music as a uniting force while injecting some desperately needed rock ‘n’ roll into the monotonous world of noise-cancelling headphones.

“Monitor III A.N.C. focus on the essentials for good performance. We have reduced the weight, made the cushions soft as clouds and completely re-imagined the headband for long-lasting comfort,” says design director, Kenny Wong. “From an experience point of view, it stretches what is possible when it comes to the touch and feel of a Marshall product. They are extremely tactile with a self-healing leather texture and that unmistakable brass logo.”

The Monitor III A.N.C. are tuned for “thunderous bass” and “screaming highs”, and feature Marshall’s new Soundstage spatial audio technology that includes a new Adaptive Loudness feature that adjusts the sound based on your environment. The headphone’s design include a premium lightweight and foldable construction for true portability, plus a luxurious hard case with red velvet inside resembling a guitar case, in a nod to Marshall’s rich musical heritage and the famous frontman that has joined in this launch.

Everyone’s listening habits are different, so Monitor III A.N.C build on the audio personalisation options debuted on the Major V, with a customisable M-button for navigating EQ settings, Spotify and voice assistants. Meanwhile, the microphones have been designed to dramatically reduce wind noise so you can enjoy the ANC experience and crystal-clear call quality without that common annoying whistle.

The Bluetooth LE Audio-ready headphones come equipped with Auracast, a futureproof technology promising to open a new world of audio-sharing possibilities alongside other Marshall speakers and headphones.

We have completely revised the acoustic design to improve the performance on all fronts – sound, ANC, transparency and voice calls,” states audio & acoustics engineer, Nicolas Pignier Delafontaine. “Monitor III delivers a sound that is wide, well-balanced, detailed and enjoyable. Soundstage spatial audio takes the music out of your head and onto a virtual stage around you, making you feel immersed and revealing subtle layers in your favourite records.”

Monitor III A.N.C. will be available in Canada exclusively from Erikson Consumer starting on October 24th priced at CAD $499.98.
