Marshall and Billie Joe Armstrong join forces to unveil feature-packed Monitor III A.N.C. headphones
BAIE D’URFÉ, QC, October 23rd 2024 – Marshall and Billie Joe Armstrong have joined forces to launch the new Monitor III A.N.C. wireless headphones. Designed for true music lovers, the spatial audio headphones feature an impressive 70 hours of active noise-cancelling playtime and 100 hours without, so you can listen for longer without interruptions. The Green Day frontman leads Marshall’s new campaign aimed at finding harmony in the chaos and celebrating music as a uniting force.
“We have completely revised the acoustic design to improve the performance on all fronts: sound, ANC, transparency and voice calls,” adds audio & acoustics engineer, Nicolas Pignier Delafontaine. “Monitor III delivers a sound that is wide, well-balanced, detailed and enjoyable. Soundstage spatial audio takes the music out of your head and onto a virtual stage around you, making you feel immersed and revealing subtle layers in your favourite records.”
Marshall’s latest headband campaign and the launch of Monitor III A.N.C. are being brought to life through legendary Green Day frontman and guitarist, Billie Joe Armstrong. Billie’s history with Marshall includes using the JCM900 and Plexi 1959SLP amps. A specially modified version of the Plexi 1959SLP, now known as the "Dookie Mod", helped define the sound of the band’s seminal album, Dookie, which turns 30 this year. "If you know anything about me then you know that for me, the music never turns off," says Billie. "Whether it’s a stadium or a club, a pub or a subway, rock ’n’ roll is not just something I do, I live it... all the time. Marshall is and has been one of my loudest copilots along the way – from the stage and now, to the street. What better way to flip off the world than to put your headphones on so it's just you, and the music."
