Our Verdict

Marshall Major 2/Major II

Marshall MID ANC Wireless

If you want the convenience of a wireless and wired design, go for the Marshall MID ANC. However, if you only need a wired headset at a budget price, go for the Marshall Major II. The MID ANC are wireless and also noise cancelling, which makes them a more versatile everyday option. They also have a better-balanced sound quality and come with a cable, meaning that you can use them passively if the battery dies. The Major II are completely passive, so you do not have to worry about a battery in the first place. They also have a slightly more compact design but don't look or feel as premium as the MID ANC.
