    Great speaker. Stack Mode misleading

    This speaker is very loud and so much better than the Bose Soundlink Micro. It does lean a little on the bassier side than the standard bose sound signature but by no means significantly. It's a good thing and this unit can get LOUD. The speaker also easily lasts 10+ hours on a full charge, and one speaker alone is enough to fill up to 2 rooms with sound. Do note however, the clarity starts to suffer once you push volume past 80%. My biggest gripe with this speaker is that you unfortunately can only pair one other speaker with this in stack mode. Stack mode implies that you can link as many marshall speakers of the same kind together, but testing showed you can only link together 2 units. Linking a third unit to the group disables the first two. This might be a dealbreaker for some people. But on an individual speaker basis- i highly recommend it.

    ROCKIN BLUETOOTH SPEAKER

    Great little Bluetooth speaker! Not too heavy on the bass, definitely for true Rock n Roll fans. I personally listened to each bluetooth speaker on display in the store until I found the one that I thought produced the quality listening experience I was looking for. I was tuning my ear for what I felt produced the best sound for Classic Rock, Indie, Post Punk, Punk, Grunge, etc. In contrast to JVC, and a few other popular brands I felt like this speaker wasn't just built for Pop and Rap, which I listen to, but isn't my first choice for entertainment. The bluetooth pairing is pretty good. I purchased two speakers because you can stack them, but I find it tricky to remember how many times you have to press the main button to use this feature. I've learned to keep the user manual nearby. Once the speakers are paired/stacked the music delivery is seamless. I keep one speaker in the living room and one in the kitchen of my apartment and it makes a big difference having the two. The outer casing is very rugged, and can take a drop, it also comes with a strap on the back so you can hang, or secure it to a wall hook, or get creative with what's available to secure to. It has a long charge life and charges quickly as well. I am disappointed with the length of the charging cable, it is way to short. They need to add at least 6-10 inches more to the wire.

    The best speaker ever! The sound is clear and it can reach a high volume. The look is also superior and is durable material. I am pleased and happy with this purchase. I’ve used it many hours without a single charge yet.

    This is an excellent speaker for the music lover. Great portability, connects immediately to your BT source (literally immediately), with battery life to cover a full day of listening. More importantly, it has excellent quality of sound with deep and clean reproduction of base frequencies! It can fill a small room with very warm sound!

    I have two of the Bose micro speakers and have used them for a long time now. You buy these because you can travel with them and they give off good sound. Light and just easy to use. I decided that it was time for an upgrade and saw many reviews on this little guy and decided to take the plunge. Let me say that I put this little sucker on my kitchen table, turned on Kendrick & Dre "Recipe" and was immediately like "WHHHHOOOOA THERE LITTLE BUCKAROO!!!" This guy isnt intended to make the walls shake. Its intended to make your body vibrate. Meaning make you hear what you came to hear and it does. Im jamming my butt off but then said ok calm down...play something smoother...something easy and see how this square hockey puck does... So I did and turned on some Tevin Campbell "Can We Talk" and was sold. Receipt and box, straight to the trashcan because this guy isnt going back. After about 20 mins of jamming out, I threw this little guy into my suitcase because he is headed with us on vacation. Good buy here. I will say that I hear people compare the sound of this to the Tribits and say the Tribits is just as good but $50 cheaper. I have NOT heard the Tribits but I will say the one bougie thing about the Marshall I like is the design that it can stand or lay flat and looks good doing either while the Tribits looks kinda toyish.

    Was interested in a new speaker with a strap after my old Bose gave up on me. This is quite a nice improvement on the Bose (micro I think that has the strap?) that I think is the closest rival in a number of ways. It has better battery life, charges with USB C, has a nice battery indicator and most importantly has a nicer, fuller, more punchy sound. It sounds so much more fun and has a lot more volume it can hit. All round great little speaker

    Perfect Speaker for Travel & Great Sound!

    Wow, the sound is a amazing! I had a Bose Micro, and I thought it was really good and the one bonus with that speaker is it's completely water proof. I sold it because I wasn't really using it but I'm starting to travel more and wanted something of similar size so I started researching the best micro size speakers, and review after review, the Marshall Willen came out on top. I took the "plunge" and purchased it with high hopes and man, it delivered. It's loud and clear, doesn't distort, and has really solid bass for it's size. The highs and mids are much better than what I remember on my Bose Micro and the loudness compares well to my Bose Flex, but the Flex is twice the size and twice the bass. I purchased 3 more speakers in the same size family on Amazon and nothing compared to this Marshall. It is one of my fave speakers of all time and the one I plan to travel with!

    Incredible Sound in a Compact Package! Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) I recently bought the Marshall Willen Portable Speaker, and I’m absolutely impressed by its performance! Despite its small size, the sound quality is outstanding—clear highs, deep bass, and impressive volume. It easily fills a room with rich, full sound, and the clarity at higher volumes is remarkable. The design is vintage and stylish, with the iconic Marshall logo, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The build quality is solid and rugged, and it’s also waterproof, which is perfect for outdoor use or taking to the beach. Battery life is fantastic too! I’ve used it for several hours without worrying about charging, and it’s easy to carry around with its compact size and included strap. If you’re looking for a portable speaker with premium sound, style, and durability, the Marshall Willen is a great choice!

    Cute on the shelf or desk, sound was OK

    The speaker is really cool looking and nice size for portability. It is definitely nice to have on a shelf or desk or if you are hanging out at the park, beach or camping. Unboxing was easy, as well as set up. Similar with all bluetooth devices you press and hold the button and wait for your phone or laptops to recognize. As soon as it paired with my phone it immediately said to download the "Marshall" app. As soon as I downloaded it allowed me the options to skip the personal information which is great because its annoying when every single company is trying to track everything we do nowadays. As soon as the app was configured I connected to my apple music list and started playing. The app has three pre configured equalizer set up - Marshall, Bass boost and Voice. I tried each one at medium volume level. Marshall sounds tinny and hollow, the Bass Boost was OK and the Voice was good for voice only. After medium level, I increased the volume and was not impressed and was disappointed. Marshall is known for their amplifiers and this speaker although its bluetooth and portable does not hit it out of the park. Overall, I gave it 3 stars only because the design and the material used was very nice and its waterproof which is a great feature for portability. It just missed the mark on sound quality at higher volumes.

    Upgrading to EMBERTON after 1 month

    The quality here is pretty impressive upon first few uses. For such a tiny little device, it produces an imposing sound profile through to the peak of its volume. The WILLEN holds its charge even through extended use at maximum volume and can be charged during use to create endless listening. It connects easily and quickly to your device and plays a little guitar strum when connected and on start up. The gold front facing button serves as power, pause and play. I know its probably a me issue, but after maybe a few dozen hours at maximum volume, the sound quality degrades pretty significantly on the low end, so if you need a high volume device for extended listening, maybe choose the next tier from this Marshall product line, the EMBERTON. Despite only owning the device for a month and needing to replace it, I'll be upgrading to the EMBERTON and hoping the volume durability suits my needs better than the WILLEN because certainly the sound quality of Marshall's WILLEN has earned a repeat customer.

      Hello there, we like this! Hopefully the Emberton will keep you hooked and have you looking for bigger sound as well, on to the Middleton! It is true that the bigger speakers will provide a sound that will saturate a larger space, however, the smaller speakers do not sacrifice on quality. We hope you are able to find a speaker that you are able to enjoy.

    Wow, I am very impressed with this cute little speaker with a big sound! I bought this to use when riding my bike. It didn’t take long to pair, and it would have been even less if I would have taken the time to look at the directions. What a difference between my old bike speaker and this. This one has much more bass. I’m very happy with the sound not to mention how sturdy and well-made it is. Did I mention just how cute it is? ha-ha. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a small Bluetooth speaker because I know you will love it too!

    Amazing speaker for such a small size. It does have a tiny bit of a hollow sound compared to a larger speaker, but that’s kind of expected for its small size and single driver. The build quality and overall design is the best part. The control knob is also a cool touch. Overall I definitely recommend if you want a smaller speaker. Not going to replace the sound of larger speakers, though.
