Our Verdict

Marshall MID ANC Wireless

Grado GW100 Wireless

The Marshall MID ANC Wireless are better headphones than the Grado GW100 Wireless. The Marshall are significantly better-built headphones and have an amazing audio reproduction. They also have a decent ANC feature to isolate background noise. On the other hand, they don’t have the openness of the Grado because of their closed-back design. The Marshall offer a much better value and are more versatile thanks to their design. They're noise cancelling and sound more neutral.
