Marshall and Billie Joe Armstrong join forces to unveil feature-packed Monitor III A.N.C. headphones

INTRODUCING MONITOR III A.N.C.

Injecting some desperately needed rock ‘n’ roll into the monotonous world of noise-cancelling headphones, Monitor III A.N.C. have been designed from the ground up to cater for true music lovers.

Drawing on 60+ years of head-turning sound, the headphones fully immerse listeners in thunderous bass and screaming highs, featuring enhanced noise-cancelling technology to block out the commotion you don’t want. With an incredible 70 hours of wireless ANC playtime and 100 hours without, plus Marshall’s new Soundstage spatial audio technology, private listening sessions feel like your favourite musician is in the room with you.

Whether mid-flight, commuting to work or making your way to a gig, a new Adaptive Loudness feature adjusts the sound based on your environment, without compromising on audio quality and enhancing every detail of your music, wherever you are.

Everyone’s listening habits are different, so Monitor III A.N.C. builds on the audio personalization options debuted on Major V, with a customizable M-button for effortlessly 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 being disturbed.

The Bluetooth LE Audio-ready headphones come equipped with Auracast™, a futureproof technology promising to open up a new world of audio-sharing possibilities alongside other Marshall speakers and headphones. Leading technologies are matched by iconic design, including 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.

“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.”

“We have completely revised the acoustic design to improve the performance on all fronts: sound, ANC, transparency and voice calls,” adds 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 favorite records.”

Monitor III A.N.C. are available from September 24^th at Marshall.com and select retailers priced at £299.
