Hmm am listening to a borrowed set now, Details is not sharp nor analytic and can be considered a lil muddy at the same time. But since its a Canalphone i cant complain much, On first impression its pretty blended, sound sig leaning towards round and musical and the air it moves is decent considering its not an iem.
 
And i like the treble from them among the whole spectrum, J3 > Maestro EQ is just nice for me, not too piercing nor fatiguing for me =)
 
Headstage-wise, Minor as a Canalphones do have the advantage of being outside-the-head but intimate just enough in comparison to IEMs.
 
Generally, For such build for its price, and a sound that is already pretty decent for a conventional earphone, Marshall Minor shouldn't have much difficulty in scoring patrons who are non-audiophile and shuns or possess IEM-phobia.

Yes! And the built is pretty good too, only waste is the lack of a proper strain relief at the side of the buds =S Sound-wise like i said, Airy, Blended, Smooth with decent bass response and sonic thickness for a canal bud.

I own them, they dont sound as good as they look, but I think they look realy cool :wink:
 
they sound nice.. only have my HD-25's to compare to,side by side they sound ..hm...mellow is the best word I can find.
relaxed and comfy,just like the fit.
I want more bass,but only when I just switched from the senns,
after 30-60 min I "get used" to the sound and like them more and more.
 
they are perfect for the gym,or any other sports/training.
they let outside noise in,but no music out. :)
totally secure in the ears.and real comfy I forget they are in my ears after a few minutes. :)

Hehe go ahead! I just dropped a lil dough a week back on a Soundmagic PL50 for my daily jogging use due to its fitting and ergonomy, laid-back sound suited what i need for my active use too

well, its nice to hear that people are loving this thing...
 
many iems/earbuds like this are really worth a try.
but people here seems to be too attached to brands and makers...
and not new companies who create something really worth and new to try.

I don't like them very much either.  They are very hollow sounding and really lacking in bass impact and depth.  However, I was bound and determined to find some use for them and I did.  They do have admirable mids so they are really good with podcasts.  Also, Jimmy Buffet sounds really good on them.  They are also very comfortable.  Not in the same league as the IE2, but they are wearable for some long periods.  The cord is also great.
