I own multiple Marshall speakers. I recently bought this one and I absolutely love it. Putting it in a corner of a room or next to a wall amplifies the sound and makes it sound like it’s coming from a much bigger speaker than it is. Slick design and great feel. Marshall, y’all rock!

Both aesthetically and sonically. Photos and videos barely do justice to how fluorescent the orange is on this one. Seeing how quickly it sold out, I feel lucky to even have gotten one. Would love to see a Patta collaboration for the Willen as well.

It is beautifully made,the colour of the entire unit, the triple grill colours etc. Although it would have been much much better looking if it came with the carry strap like my Middleton. I regret buying 2 units as I didn’t realise how small it was.

I did a bit of research on Bluetooth speakers and ended up going for the Emberton II. I have it in the cream color and its both aesthetically pleasing AND has great sound quality. I use it to stream music from my phone as well as my turntable.

This little box lives up to the Marshall name! It is built solid, compact and convenient to tote but then it brings the power of the A chord alive and fills the room with a clear fat bottomed sound that makes you go “daaayum”, yeah, I love it!

Great sound. Good investment. Thank you Marshall
