• A:Answer Sorry for my snarky first "answer." I had previously been looking at a different speaker and I was still thinking about that one when I said see the specs, because power was the first thing it listed.

Q: QuestionCan you use this speaker with a Bluetooth-Out turntable?

Asked 2 years ago by Kat.

This question was asked about the related product: Marshall - Acton III Bluetooth Home Speaker with Bass / Treble / Volume Controls and 3.5 mm Auxiliary Input - Black

• A:Answer Hello Kat, thanks for your question. In order to connect to the Marshall Headphones speakers via Bluetooth, the turntable must support Bluetooth 4.0 or more recent. It is also useful if the turntable has a Bluetooth transmitter with a selection screen, as customers report mixed success with auto-pairing our speakers to devices that do not have a selection screen available. Let us know if you have any further questions, or comments.

Q: QuestionHow is the Acton III different from the Acton II Bluetooth Speaker?

Asked 2 years ago by Rider.

This question was asked about the related product: Marshall - Acton III Bluetooth Home Speaker with Bass / Treble / Volume Controls and 3.5 mm Auxiliary Input - Black

• A:Answer Thank you for your question. The Acton III is essentially an update of the Acton II Bluetooth. The Acton III has been retuned and has a newer Bluetooth version which has compatibility for Bluetooth audio LE. The over-all aesthetic has been updated and has analog power switches as opposed to the digital toggle found on the Acton II Bluetooth. There is also a control jog added to the speaker. Both speakers are very modern and have great sound quality.

Q: QuestionHow many watts?

Asked 2 years ago by Dro.

This question was asked about the related product: Marshall - Acton III Bluetooth Home Speaker with Bass / Treble / Volume Controls and 3.5 mm Auxiliary Input - Black

• A:Answer Hi Dro, the Acton III has an SPL rating of 95 dB @ 1 m. We don't use Watts as a spec as it is isn't comparable across all speakers and has so many variables that affect it: SPL is a measure that can be used across all products. Hope that helps.
