Customer Ratings & Reviews

everywhere love everything about this little powerhouse from the base to the look it breaks necks everywhere i go!

This small speaker has been greaet for travel and small outdoor gatherings with family and friends. Provides stellar sound for such a small speaker.

This is a handheld size BT speaker with iconic Marshall amp looks. It’s got a strap on the back that is great for using on a bike or attaching to your back pack / bag strap. I use it also to attached to a bar in the shower for my morning get up and go tunes. Sound is decent and it has 3 EQ settings: Main/Marshall default, “Push” for bass boost and a heavier sound (my preference), and a Voice enhanced mode for pod casts or using for phone calls. I found it a bit quiet except on its loudest volume settings, but this is made to be more of a smaller space speaker for a single room or small area of listening and not be an “amp”. Battery preservation mode - This is an interesting and unique feature that I haven’t seen before in a BT speaker. It’s settings that allow you to try and maximize the battery life through preservation settings. Limiting maximum charge to 95%, lowers the charging speed if temp gets too high while charging, and an option to limit charging speed to prolong battery lifespan. Time will tell, but I’m hopeful that these settings will ensure long life of the speaker. Battery life itself is impressive with 17+ hours of battery life. It’s also dust and waterproof if you take it to the pool or beach and then quick rinse off to clean. Note that it doesn’t have a linking feature to pair with another speaker, but supports the new upcoming Auracast BT music feature (but I don’t believe that is widely available yet as of this review September 2024). Think Screencast/Air Play for BT audio. Marshall app is easy to use and connect to speaker for enhance features like EQ and firmware updates. Overall a nice speaker for smaller spaces or listening to music on the go.

Marshall is a name we know for great quality audio to jam out to. This portable Bluetooth speaker has good things going for it. Right off the bat I will say that this isn't the best sounding speaker but given it's smaller form factor and ruggedness as trade offs, this makes for a good contender for taking with you on the go. If I were looking for a speaker I can take with me to the park, bike ride, or to the basketball court, this is a good choice. It's rugged enough that you can throw it in your bag but the included strap is nice to be included so that you can strap it to your bicycle handle bars or backpack strap without worries of it falling off. It holds off dust and water with it being IP67 dust and waterproof rating so you can submerge it in 3 ft of water for up to 30 minutes. 17 hour battery life is also a big pro given it's size. I love that it being USB-C rechargeable, I can easily connect my battery bank to it for more fun on the go since I only need one USB-C cable for my phone, laptop, and not this speaker. The overall sound of this speaker is good with a noticeable bass that once again is pretty impressive for a speaker of this size. I personally think that the sound quality is best at 55-75% volume, depending on what type of music you are listening to. It helps that the signature "Marshall" name plate is front and center of the speaker making it look premium even though it is mostly a soft touch plastic material. If you are in the market for a on the go, rugged, bass heavy, Bluetooth speaker, this definitely is worth considering.

All around great sounding for a speaker this size and the battery is more than enough for a day of listening.

There are many Bluetooth speakers to choose from. Why choose the Marshall Willen? It’s the sound and the size. This speaker punches above its size in sound quality. It’s not perfect, especially compared with larger options. Marshall built a good frequency range into this speaker, but they couldn’t fit the power which comes with larger speaker like Bose’s Soundlink or Ultimate Ears Megaboom. With the WIllen, it sounds great within 5-7 feet. Beyond that, the quality gets a little muddy and soft. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience was not as smooth as I’d come to expect from Marshall. I was able to easily get the speaker connected to my phone, but couldn’t get it connected to my PC. Marshall does provide a nice app so you’ll have an equalizer to make the speaker sound the way you like. Overall, it’s a decent speaker with some great features. I wish there was a little more consistency in how it sounds to recommend more fully. There may be better options, depending on what your needs are.

just got this as a gift from my girlfriend, she knows i love music, and needed something portable on the go! marshall did an amazing job with the willen ll!!! the willen ll is louder than my jbl flip 6 and i can actully take it everywhere with its built in strap! the play/pause/playback/foward/v+andv- is all in a small gold shift knob making it convenient to switch anything very fast, thank you to my girlfriend, and thank you marshall!!!

Very great sound! Love how lightweight it is and it’s easy to clip on! Very good for traveling!

Good sound for portable music. Easy to pack for traveling!

Simply the best portable speaker. Sound quality is amazing and it has a unique design.

Small but loud. Has great bass and amazing sound. One of my favorite speakers for rock music

Easy to carry. The sounds is good, you can also customize with the app.

My grandkids are quite happy with this product which I bought for three of them. The sound is excellent, battery life is impressive.

The Marshall Willen II is honestly one of the best things I’ve ever had. I love that it connects to two devices at the same time—so it’s always ready whether I’m at my desktop, cooking, or even in the shower. For such a small speaker, the sound is insanely powerful. Marshall just means party, always. I’ve always loved Marshall and now I want them all. This one feels extra special because it was a birthday gift from my dad. Truly the best gift I’ve received in years. Every time I hear it, it makes me smile. I feel so happy with it.

I loved it, it sounds great, it's the perfect size

GREAT SOUND for the small size, it has a removable rubber strap which fits perfectly on my scooter.

Just a quick overview of this. It sounds very good and maybe because it’s the branding but rock / metal does sound especially good on it. Maybe it’s just tuned more specifically . It is small but does produce a good amount of sound like it’s not gonna fill in auditorium but a living room in the corner classroom, bedroom workout room not bad at all. Feel solid and sounds good

Very happy with this compact speaker. Purchased for the esthetic, love the sound!

I have a bigger speaker of this brand but its just to big to carry every where this one sounds amazing for the size

While this speaker looks good, is highly portable, and has the IP rating I was looking for, I was told that this speaker supported Marshall’s stack mode, which was important for me. It turns out it does not. I would not have purchased based on this knowledge.
