Marshall Monitor Headphone announced

The Marshall Monitor embodies the power and strength that is Marshall in a headphone with its Hi-Fi prowess and monster sound.  Its slender over-ear construction delivers superior noise isolation without the bulk. The Monitor is embossed with a white script logo and black vinyl leather, evoking the spirit of those legendary vintage amps, while the heavy-duty metal hinges, brass accents and plug make it full-out roadworthy. The completely detachable double-ended coil cord with mic and remote can be worn on either the right or left side. The extra 3.5mm socket allows users to share music. When users are done, fold them up and stow them away in the canvas carrying pouch.
