Sleek Ivory Headphones

Marshall Major White Offers a Lighter Design for Audiophiles

— October 19, 2011 — Art & Design
For those who wanted a lighter look to Marshall Amps line of headphones, the Marshall Major White design is the perfect solution.

The Marshall Major White headphones are the exact same version of the black design, but in a lighter tone. The headband is constructed from the same vinyl material that's used in the company's amplifiers. The earmuffs have a super-soft cushion that rests on the ear comfortably while blocking out most outside noise. The Major White also has a microphone built into the cables that's perfect for anyone whose primary music source comes from their cell phones. It's fully collapsible as well, which makes it travel-friendly for those constantly on-the-go. The technical details remain the same with a frequency response of 20-20kHz and a 15mW rate input power with a maximum of 20mW.
Trend Themes
1. Lightweight Headphone Designs - There is an opportunity for companies to develop headphones with a similarly lightweight design as the Marshall Major White to appeal to audiophiles who prioritize comfort and style.
2. Smartphone-compatible Headphones - With the integration of a microphone in the cables, more companies can create headphones that are specifically designed to connect with mobile devices, providing a strong selling point for music-lovers on-the-go.
3. Collapsible Headphones for Travel - Creating collapsible headphones like the Marshall Major White allows for greater convenience and portability for frequent travelers, and presents an opportunity for headphone companies to tailor products for this market.
Industry Implications
1. Audio Technology - Companies in the audio technology industry can develop similar lightweight and collapsible headphone options that incorporate a microphone, and focus on creating streamlined products for busy consumers.
2. Mobile Device Accessories - As more people rely on their mobile devices for music and entertainment, businesses can specialize in creating high-quality smartphone-compatible headphones to capitalize on the market's demand for these specialized products.
3. Travel Gear - With the rise of digital nomads and travel enthusiasts, companies in the travel industry can branch out into creating unique and adaptable headphones designed to cater to an on-the-go lifestyle.
