If you know anything about music, well, you’ve probably heard a lot about Marshall and their products.

The British company was founded all the way back in 1962 by shop owner and drummer Jim Marshall and is best known for designing and manufacturing music tech, including amplifiers, speaker cabinets, headphones and effects pedals. If their extensive line of tech isn’t impressing you, their fans might. Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Pete Townshend have famously used Marshall amps over the years to enhance their sound.

In short, it’s a company that makes tech for musicians by musicians, so you know it’s good. With so much in their extensive catalogue to choose from, we as music nerds are breaking down the best of the best products to shop now. We’ll cover the new and old from headphones and earbuds to portable speakers.

Looking for quality sound all wrapped up in a sleek and stylish package? Well, look no further than Marshall’s Major V headphones. Retailing for $159.99, the style seemingly draws design inspiration from retro models, what with the square headphone cushions and striking branding. If you’re taking your tunes with you on the go, these headphones can be folded up and stored away, easy as pie.

As far as technical aspects go, you’ve got up to 100+ hours of wireless playtime and wireless charging accompanied by Marshall’s classic “crunchy” sound that amplifies your listening experience tenfold. You can shop up to four colorways; however, the new Midnight Blue colorway is probably our favorite.

Speaking of Midnight Blue, Marshall’s Emberton III received the same colorful treatment. The deep navy hues look absolutely stunning when contrasting with the gold accents featured throughout. Beyond looking extremely sexy, this portable speaker boasts 32+ hours of playtime, along with what Marshall calls True Stereophonic, which is basically crisp and clear 360° sound. If you do want to bring your speaker with you to the beach or on a spontaneous camping trip, you won’t have to worry about your tech sustaining any damage because it’s water and dustproof. In fact, the speaker’s IP67 rating allows it to be submerged in water for up to 30 minutes.

When it comes to Marshall’s design, you’re getting quality sound and stylish design, all in one. These wireless earbuds are a great example of those two sentiments. Retailing for $219.99, the style is all black with gilded accents and contrasting Marshall logo detailing in stark white cursive. Beyond the looks, these earbuds boast up to 30 hours of playtime and noise-cancelling tech that really lets you tune out the world and hone in on your music. If the noise-cancelling effect is too much, you can turn on transparency mode, allowing those outside noises back in. These buds are Bluetooth connected and can also charge wirelessly inside the case.

Who said wired headphones weren’t cool? The style has been receiving a major resurgance in popularity, seen on talked-about tastemakers like Charli XCX and Addison Rae. Now you can follow in your faves footsteps with these Marshall Mode wired earbuds in all black. Unlike some of the older wired earbud models, these include a built-in microphone and remote so you can adjust your sound on the go.

Ever have trouble with earbuds fitting your ears? Well, not anymore. These include a unique design that anchors to your ear, preventing the buds from going anywhere. You’ve also got four ear tip sizes so you can find the perfect fit for you. As far as sound goes, these earbuds have custom-tuned dynamic drivers that produce rich and powerful audio every time.

This is one of the beefier Bluetooth speakers that Marshall has. The Stanmore III delivers audio that fills any space. Said audio was re-engineered, allowing users a more immersive experience, whether you’re bumping that new Tyler The Creator or Lorde. You can easily get to listening by connecting to this speaker from any device using Bluetooth, RCA or 3.5 mm. Don’t just take our word for it. The Stanmore III received the 2023 Reddot Design Award Winner for its innovative design and sustainable approach.

Don’t let the size of this portable speaker fool you. The Willen II packs a punch, offering high-quality sound with heavy bass along with up to 17+ hours of playtime. For easy on-the-go listening, you’ve got a fastening strap that attaches to almost anything. You’ve also got a nifty little built-in microphone that allows you to take calls completely hands-free. If your Willen II does die out on you, not to fret. The speaker charges up in only 20 minutes.
