    Their app is unusable (& necessary)

    Marshall makes beautiful speakers and amps that are capable of great sound quality - but the key word is capable, from a hardware perspective only. You'll need to use their app for this speaker, which uses only bluetooth LE, while this speaker and all others that they make use only archaic traditional bluetooth. So while your phone might connect to it (and all the notifications your phone gets - you can't make it the primary device), the Marshall app won't. This is a problem in 2 ways: 1 it decimates the sound quality and means you can't adjust anything because you need the app to do that. 2 as many reviewing the app with other speakers of theirs that it did work with (or who have iphones/different devices): the sound quality is dependent on software updates to not nuke anything, and it seems Marshall is incapable of hiring an engineer with even high school level skills. Basically it's like paying for a nice gaming PC, brand new parts, beautiful design, but it comes preinstalled with so much malware it's unusable....but in bluetooth speaker/app form. If this speaker at least had the option of being wired (not ideal but means that you're not dependent on a phone app) or had some basic controls on the back, then I'd honestly keep it despite the cost and lost functionality. It doesn't though, and it's such a disappointment, because I can tell from the design of the physical speaker that this was designed to last....unfortunately some exec clearly wanted an app just to have an app and advertise other Marshall products, without intending on that app working. Because it's relevant: I use a Samsung Galaxy S23 as my phone (so latest model flagship android phone at the time of this purchase), but I have the same issue trying to download the app and troubleshoot from an ipad to see if Marshall simply isn't an option for Android users (still a major design flaw when there's not physical workaround).

      Posted .

      Hello there, thanks for your review. We'd like to clear up a few things in your review. The speaker can be used with the app for additional features, however, the Emberton II speakers can connect to your phone and are fully functional without the Marshall Bluetooth app. The Emberton II speakers do not have malware installed on them: you may have experienced an issue with them but many customers are using them without any issues and enjoying them. The issue with the app is on Google's end: Android 14 will not work with Bluetooth Class and Bluetooth LE at the same time (for products with a certain Bluetooth chipset). Our Product Team is in touch with Google and hopes the Android firmware will be updated to work with Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth LE at the same time so that our customers can once again enjoy the additional features offered by the Marshall Bluetooth app.

    This speaker is a powerhouse for it’s price and size! It fills my small studio apartment nicely. My only gripe is that podcasts sound terrible on the speaker. But if you don’t like podcasts then this speaker is perfect for you and your small kickbacks!
