    This is one of the best Bluetooth speakers out there in this size category and price range. I also have the first gen Bose SoundLink Flex, which is also a great speaker. Both the Flex and the Emberton have their strong points. The Emberton has 360° sound which makes the listening experience more immersive with its incredible soundstage. Plus the Battery life on the Emberton II is much better than the Flex. Also, you gotta love the looks of the Emberton. I know many people prefer to have speakers with microphones, I could not care less about this feature. I am very selective and picky about sound quality. I have purchased and returned many Bluetooth speakers over the years that just didn't make the cut, and I still own Bluetooth speakers from Klipsch, Sony, and Harman Kardon, in addition to the Bose and Marshall brands. Remember what Jan Brady used to say, "Marshall, Marshall, Marshall!" Just get it, especially since it's currently on sale for $99 - it's an easy choice and you won't regret it!

    As well as a speaker can be made. Although not the loudest but for travelling around the house and filling an area with sound that's not intrusive but at a level that lets people think and really enjoy a level of bass

    Love the sound quality and looks of this speaker. This was my second one so I could use the stack mode, and I’m very impressed how the sound fills a large room. Stack mode can be a little annoying to sync up, but worth the effort. Also, great battery life and very durable.

    This speaker is relatively small and portable, so I was surprised by the richness of the sound it produces. I can keep this in the living room while I’m going from room to room and not lose high or low tones. The bass is great right out the box, I couldn’t be happier.

    Jekyll & Hyde Speaker. Good low vol, poor high vol

    Before getting to the Jekyll & Hyde sound this speaker gives you, I'll cover the other aspects. We'll start with the build quality of this speaker. The speaker itself is very well made and has a good weight to it for a smaller speaker. The rubbery type feel has a leather-type pattern to it, which looks nice. The metal grille on both front and back looks very stylish. It really does look the part of a quality speaker to justify the price tag. It would look great sitting on a desk, in a den or man cave. This speaker is supported by the Marshall app. The app itself is very basic. There is an EQ option, but it's just 3 pre-set configurations, one of which is really only good for stuff like podcasts. The default EQ is really the best option, so not much use for the app unless you are waiting to use more than one of these wireless in what they refer to as "stack" mode. Sound wise, this is where the speaker is Jekyll & Hyde. At lower to medium volume, the speaker sounds fairly smooth with a nice little bump to the bass for a small speaker. This isn't a very loud speaker, so as you turn it up to about 75-80% or more, this is where Mr. Hyde shows himself. At higher volume levels the bass disappears and the upper treble gets very bright. At max volume this speaker sounds quite harsh and really lacking in bass. It's pretty much not enjoyable at max volume. So in the end, if you need a speaker to just listen at lower levels, this speaker sounds pretty nice and looks fantastic. It does have a driver and passive radiator on both front and back, which means you don't get the full force of the sound pointing at you no matter how you position it. Best to sit it on a corner to let the sound shoot front and back to also get a boost in the bass output from being in the corner. But if you want something you can crank up in a small or medium room, this might give cause to call the police and report there has been a violent assault on your ears.

    This is the best bluetooth speaker that I've owned. I love the look, feel and exceptional sound. Super extended battery life. Appears and sounds made of superior quality just like a real Marshall amplifier. Highly recommended.

    Speaker is impressively compact yet delivers powerful sound. The audio quality is excellent, with clear highs and rich bass that easily fill a room. A great choice for anyone who wants a premium sound in a portable size.

    Great speaker! Very loud and has a long lasting battery life. I haven’t dropped it yet but it does feel very protected. I loved my first one so much I had to get another! It is a bit on the pricey side but I don’t care it’s an absolute unit of a speaker!

    I was anticipating a great sounding speaker from Marshall and I am not disappointed at all. The fullness of sound, clarity and bass is incredible for its portable size. The build quality and workmanship is first rate and actually beautiful! Marshall really does it right.

    This little speaker packs a big punch. I bought it for my office, but it outperforms the speakers that my employees use downstairs. It also stays charged for a long time and it's portability is so convenient.
