Posted .Hello Bhushan, thanks for your review and feedback. We'd love to know more about what was missing for you, maybe a larger speaker that is capable of delivery higher audio would be more suitable?

Coolest Bluetooth speaker ever
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let’s just start with how cool this speaker looks. It gives that old fashioned Marshall rock-n-roll amp vibe. It feels very solid and has a little weight to it but not heavy at all. It is also a nice size, easy to store and transport. The textured outside seems durable and it is stated to be dust and waterproof so you should feel comfortable using it outdoors. It’s not really stated how waterproof so might not want to leave in a heavy rain or dunk in a pool. Easy setup, already in pairing mode when first turned on. I found the guitar-ish startup and shutdown sounds to be kind of neat. I do wish the supplied cable was USB-A to USB-C configuration rather than two USB-C ends since you must supply your own charger and most of the ones you have laying around are probably going to have a USB-A connector. The sound is phenomenal with speakers firing out of both sides, it really fills the listening space and makes you think that sound is coming from something much larger. There is a built-in microphone for taking calls from your connected device. I have not really utilized that feature yet, but it seems nice to have. It advertises 32+ hours of playtime. I’ve not done any scientific measurements but can say that I have used for hours at a time over several days between charges and have not run the battery down. The 10-bar power level is super detailed and way more precise than most other devices having 3, 4 or 5 bars at most. The red power meter stays on all the time but dims after a short while. If you download the companion app you can manage firmware, set battery preservation, and choose from 3 basic EQ presets. That’s about the extent of the interaction with the speaker from the app. You can also find guides and manuals to many other Marshall products in the app along with a support link that just opens a web page in your browser app. I also find it odd that the app’s name is “Bluetooth” on iOS. The only complaint that I could come up with is minor but the black embossed buttons and text on the textured outer surface of the speaker is hard to read and see unless at the perfect angle in the right lighting.

Far too dependent on app
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had some problems right away, which resulted in having to send my speaker directly to Marshall for diagnostic and repair. Ever since I got it back though it’s like I don’t even want to use it anymore. And stacking with another Marshall speaker(same model) is very temperamental. And you can’t use your microphone to voice respond to text on your phone without the speaker making a very loud blip sound at the end and sometimes the stack will disconnect from that as well. And if you don’t have an extremely extremely strong Wi-Fi connection, you will not be able to connect to the app, and you can ONLY change the very limited equalizer settings from the app. It seems inconsistent because I have two of these and one sounds better than the other. But I can’t go through more Technical support drama trauma. Perhaps I am just radioactive.

Posted .Hi Amanda, thank you for your review and feedback. This experience doesn't sound ideal at all. We hope you will consider reaching out to the Marshall Support Team again, you shouldn't accept anything less than the ideal experience with these speakers, they are worth it! It is true that the Equalizer can only be used through the app, however, WiFi is not required to connect to the app. The speaker and phone will connect to the app via Bluetooth. We'd love to get this sorted for you, hope to hear from you soon.

Posted .Hello, thanks for your review. Sounds like something might have been wrong with the speaker, this model usually has great bass. We hope you have the chance to return the speaker and talk to a Best Buy agent about it, they will help you find the right speaker for your preferences.

Classic Marshall design and sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easily out of the box, the Marshall - Emberton speaker sets itself apart with its classic Marshall styling. It has a miniature retro Marshall amp/floor monitor vibe with the box styling and gold script writing and control button. The black fence mesh grills on front and back are wrapped with a soft but durable feeling rubber trim. The speaker has a good hefty feel for the small size and will definitely stay in place wherever you sit it down to enjoy so good vibes. It comes with a simplistic design factor of using a single usb-c power input, multi directional rocker control button for power, skip, and volume, a Bluetooth connect button, and a very helpful and visible battery level led scale on top. I was expecting a good classic sound from this speaker when powered up and I was introduced with a “guitar hero” chord entry on power up and outro on power down. Very simple aesthetic but I really enjoyed this subtle touch. Now the sound continued from here and I was disappointed when connected to my phone. I was surprised at the powerful sounds produced from this somewhat small form factor speaker. I pushed the volume to the max on several different genres of music and the speaker held its own. There was dynamic vocals and a good spectrum of bass. There was little to no distortion in the sound produced at high volumes and the sound carried throughout the room. I then took the speaker poolside and was able to enjoy clear sound while enjoying the pool. This speaker is designated as water resistant but I didn’t want to test that too much even though it has a durable feel with the rubber surround and very well protected mesh grills. I really appreciate the led battery indicator so you have a feel for when its time to plug the speaker into power source. However, I used this speaker for hours at high volumes and only used three of the ten bars of battery. Overall, I am very pleased with this speaker and will carry it with me whenever I can as it is small enough to be portable without being cumbersome and powerful enough to enjoy anywhere.

Unhappy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would give it no rating but you insist on selecting one, so one it is. I returned it unopened because it was shipped to me from your "returns dept". I ordered a new speaker, not a returned item. I repurchased it from a competitor for $30 less.

perfect for outdoor use, even in the rain!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Marshall Emberton III Portable Bluetooth Speaker is an absolute powerhouse! Having used it for a variety of adventures, I can confidently say it's perfect for anyone on the go. Its 360° True Stereophonic sound ensures that every spot in the room feels like the sweet spot, no matter where you're standing. Whether it’s a beach day or a cross-country road trip, the sound remains vibrant, balanced, and loud, even at max volume. With 32+ hours of portable playtime, this speaker has been a reliable companion for nearly two days without needing a recharge. The rugged design, with its silicone exterior and metal grille, truly stands the test of time. I’ve had no worries throwing it in my bag, and its IP67 rating makes it dustproof and waterproof—perfect for outdoor use, even in the rain! Another feature I love is the built-in microphone, allowing me to take hands-free calls seamlessly. The Bluetooth LE Audio readiness makes it future-proof, ensuring an upgrade path for enhanced audio sharing. All these features packed into a compact, durable design with Marshall's signature sound make it a must-have. If you're looking for a speaker that delivers big on sound, durability, and portability, the Emberton III is worth every penny!

Great portable Speaker
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Marshall Emberton III comes in a well packaged box with instructions plus an app to download. It connected to my phones Bluetooth easily and immediately started playing good sounding music. I connected it to my Satellite radio app and it sounded good on a variety of stations and music types. It is dust and waterproof and can easily be carried from room to room or to the garage if you are working on projects. It holds 30 some hours on a single charge and charges with a USB-C. It will be ideal to take along on the boat or out into the yard when having dinner parties or doing yard work. The case is around 6x3x3 inches so it is nice size the delivers quality sound. Grilles at the front and rear essentially means that the audio is multidirectional so it really fills the room with great sound. It can also be used as a speaker for your cell phone. This is really a sweet little portable speaker. The one thing that could improve this would be to have a carrying strap like some other Bluetooth Speakers but not a deal breaker since it is quite light to carry.

Big Sound
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Emberton 3 is a stylish mini boom box with the Marshall name across the front, status lights on top with buttons for power and navigation. There is a multi function button that allows volume and track skip or backward- a defintely nice touch. It is a solid device with some weight to it and definitely substantial. It has a connection for a wrist strap, and a USB C charging port on the side. Pairing was very easy and there is an app for sound control and setup. The sound is loud, a bit on the bass positive side but with very full and robust sound. It was surprising how loud and robust the sound was, even outside on the patio on a fairly loud day. I've used other bluetooth boom boxes, but this one had a lot of volume and sounds like it was coming from a much bigger unit. The standard simplistic styling was also nice. Battery life was excellent. It was still going after 6 hours with no end in sight. I really like this mini boom box. I do wish it was not as bassy ( I did try adjusting the sound from the app), but it wasn't bad. I prefer more mid range sound.
