Marshall Monitor III ANC Specifications

Marshall Monitor III ANC headphones come equipped with ANC and Transparency modes. They also have an Adaptive Loudness feature that claims to adjust the sound based on the listener’s environment without hindering the audio quality.

The headphones feature Marshall’s Soundstage spatial audio technology, which is said to create a wider soundstage in a virtual environment for a greater sense of immersion. There’s also a multi-directional control button that allows the wearer to perform tasks such as play/pause, skip tracks, adjust the volume, and turn the headphones on/off. The same button can also be used to initiate the Bluetooth pairing process and receive, end, or reject phone calls.

Marshall Monitor III ANC headphones come with a customizable M-button that can be set to quickly access a specific function. This can be used to toggle Spotify Tap, switch between equalizer modes, or even use the paired smartphone’s voice assistant. The headphones can be paired using the Marshall Bluetooth app.

In terms of connectivity, the headphones support Bluetooth 5.3 and LE Audio. They’re also said to be future-proof thanks to the inclusion of Auracast technology. Marshall says the new headphones can deliver up to 100 hours of listening time without ANC, and up to 70 hours with ANC. They also have a quick-charging feature that’s said to deliver 12 hours of listening time with 15 minutes of charging.
