Amazon Prime Day sale: Marshall’s Major V headphones are worth it even at full price, but right now they’re at an all-time low price of $100 — or around 38% off — during Prime Day.

I might not be a true battle-tested headphone expert like CNET’s David Carnoy, but I still love headphones and I’m confident in what I like about them. My most recent pickup, the Marshall Major V on-ear bluetooth headphones, quickly became a pair that I adore.

What is Marshall?

Marshall is a British audio hardware company that got its start back in the early ’60s and became renowned for producing things like amps and speakers for live music performances. More recently, they’ve made a mark in the consumer audio space, producing home speakers with a distinctly «rock-and-roll» visual aesthetic — think rough-patterned black leather materials, gold trim, and prominent physical buttons.

They’ve also brought their signature sound and style to headphones. Recently, I picked up the Major V, Marshall’s latest iteration of its on-ear bluetooth model (thats V as in 5, not the letter), and I could hardly love them more. Marshall boasts that these headphones can last up to 100 hours on one charge, an almost ludicrous number that has largely held up as I’ve use them. The audio quality, while not patch on the heavier hitters in the Bluetooth space, is excellent for its price point, with strong bass and clean high notes. Vocals can sometimes come off a little shabby at first blush, but I find you get used to it real quick.

The connectivity performance has also really impressed me. For such a cheap set of headphones, the Major V easily maintains connections to at least two devices at a time and can switch between them almost seamlessly. That’s not something I’ve found to be the case for a lot of the affordable Bluetooth headphones I’ve tried in the past. It’s a strong contender overall in the budget Bluetooth headphones space.

Why does this deal matter?

I was able to scoop up the Marshall Major V for $100, the lowest its price has gone since they debuted last year. For that price, it’s basically a steal. For the amount of blissful use I’ve gotten out of them so far — listening to music, watching movies or getting through my audiobooks — it’s been more than worth the price of admission.

They usually retail for around $160, making their current price a 38% discount. While I was able to get this deal well in advance of Prime Day, there’s no telling how long it’ll stick around, so get a move on if you’re interested in picking a pair up.
