    Cool Speaker

    It looks beautiful, sounds amazing, is compact so it fits anywhere, and is deceptively small for its powerful volume.

    A Nostalgic Novelty

    I wasnt sure what to expect with this Marshall speaker. I have had some other brand name smart speakers around the house and wasn't sure about adding a "regular" speaker into the mix. I have been pleasantly surprised by this speaker! It sets out to fill a room and to look good; it is able to do both easily. The Acton III feels like a premium speaker. It is a heavy little thing. With this extra heft I feel more comfortable moving it from place to place knowing that it will be safe. The gold plating shines bright and accents the black leather case well. My favorite physical aspect of the Acton III is the toggle power switch. The switch is stiff, but not too stiff. I like that it makes you feel like you are starting a special experience just by powering it on. I wasn't blown away with the dials. The three dials on top control volume, bass, and treble. Each dial has red led indicators to indicate the current levels. I really with that the dials would have had a click feedback when turning the dial either up or down. The dials also infinitely spin which was a stark difference between the power toggle switch. I was really expecting a premium feel from the dials, but it just wasn't what I had expected it to be. The speaker sounds great. My wife has been enjoying listening to music while working from home. The Acton pairs effortlessly to her phone which is a huge bonus. She is able to keep the speaker low enough that it doesn't disturb others in our home while still being able to hear the playback clearly. Overall the Marshall Acton III is really nice speaker. It has the charm of a Marshall amp with the modern audio quality and experience we all expect to have nowadays. The App is required for setup but not for everyday use. It is able to pair quickly and play almost immediately once powered on. I cant believe I am actually typing this out. I probably would have given the Acton III a higher rating if the dials had tactility when spun. Given the exquisite feel of the toggle switch the dials were a big let down for me. I would certainly still recommend it to a friend if they were in the market for a speaker for indoors or outdoors.

      Hello there, thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback, we also love the power switch. A quick note that the app is NOT required to use the speaker. It is possible to connect the speaker to your phone or device without the app, but the app is required for firmware updates and it gives you additional features that aren't otherwise available such as stacking mode.

    Classic Charm

    The Marshall Acton III Bluetooth Speaker in Cream is a charming addition to any space. The vintage-inspired design adds a touch of nostalgia, and the sound quality is good, offering clear audio and decent bass. The Bluetooth connectivity works well, and the EQ presets provide some customization options. While it's not the most powerful speaker out there, its portability makes it convenient for moving around. Overall, the Acton III is a decent choice for those seeking a blend of classic aesthetics and satisfactory audio performance.

    Super quality speaker for your home. The best and most affordable home speaker that beats Bose hands down. Has an opening for the sub woofer and also there is an 360 degree feel to it. Sounds are not forced and are very clear. Nice build, hefty weight and amazing quality !!!!

    I bought this speaker for my husband for Christmas and ‘we’ love haha. It’s such a statement and talking piece. It really has a presence on his desk among his other electronics. My husband especially likes that he can connect it to his phone via Bluetooth as well as his computer. He’s a tech guy and he approved. It’s a gift that we will have for generations and eventually pass on to our kids. Such a great purchase.
