My headphones wont start. When I plug it to the USB the light turns white. When I am trying to turn it on, nothing happens. Tried using a paperclip in the input to press the button inside. Nothing happened. The battery life is truly great too, with well over 30 hours between charges making them very easy to live with. Most Bluetooth headphones that sound as good and last as long as these usually cost a lot more, making the Major IIs excellent. The only downside is they pinch a bit for long listening, which pretty much all on-ear headphones do. the circuit board in the left ear (for mine) is super simple and as that is the one not working for me it's really easy to replace. Passive noise cancellation is never a strong point of on-ear headphones, but the Marshall Major IIIs are particularly disappointing in this regard. We tried them in the office and could still easily hear people’s conversations, meaning you’d have to really blast your music if you wanted to drown out the outside world. There’s no active noise cancellation option offered here, which isn’t surprising considering this is seen as more of an entry level pair from Marshall. For active noise cancellation, you’re going to have to stump up the cash for the enjoyable and premium Marshall Mid ANCs. Forget' the headphones as a Bluetooth device on your sound source, and then disable and enable Bluetooth on your sound source and attempt to re-establish the connection.

Despite the Major IV sporting softer ear cushions than their predecessor, I found myself having to occasionally adjust them to alleviate the pressure on my ears during listening sessions. Although they feel good on your head when worn for short bursts, there’s still room for improvement when it comes to a truly comfortable fit on your ears. It’s using the powers of technology for good, and ultimately with you in control, better playlists for all. And if apps aren’t your thing, you can still use our products without it.

Compared to similar on-ear models, the price sits comfortably in the mid-range and they are one of the cheaper models on offer from Marshall.

I also noticed in my case that after freshly charging the left speaker sometimes works. The left speaker (on my headphones) is easy to open up, but I haven't seen anything obvious at the connection. As you point out the cable between the two ears may need to be replaced. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. See how we test. wires inside are separately isolated conductors, covered by some paint without plastic isolation. Like simple 3 wire headphone’s cable but 10 wire.It means you can share whatever you’re listening to with a friend using a standard headphones cable, as you might want to on a plane, train or in the office. I had the same problem and looked through user manual to find the way to hard-reset the device. As it says: Controls are equally simple to navigate. Marshall has taken a “less is more” approach, and I can’t fault the execution. A single multidirectional knob on the right earpad handles all of your key commands. Pressing and holding the knob powers the Major IV on or off, with a single press playing or pausing audio. The ear cups are held in place by thin wire arms and a flexible padded headband, covered with more fake leather texture. There are a few nice brass accents here and there. In any case, the only thing I did was adjust the wires so that the tension on them wasn't excessive (they really were not run well). If it keeps happening I may replace a wire, but it will be only 1 and I will use heat shrink to make it look nice or whatevver.
