Marshall Stanmore II

I don’t think my review will quite do the justice this speaker deserves, it is hands down the best audio equipment I have ever purchased. If anything happened to my Marshall Stanmore Speaker, my only option would be to buy this exact same one again. Breakdown on why I’m SO obsessed: It sounds amazing and has such power behind it, it’s like getting high quality stereo speakers quality in a semi-portable Speaker - TRULY! Plus, it looks FANTASTIC and I love the vintage style they are going for even though it also has Bluetooth capabilities. It has a sort of leather feel to the surface, and it really just looks stylish. The best thing about the Marshall Speaker is you can adjust the Volume, Treble, and Bass on top of the speaker via dials you turn. They light up to show what level you are at. The highest volume on the Bass absolutely blew me away! There is also the traditional white and red audio hook up ports in the back as well. There’s only one small hang up: Above I said “semi-portable”, yes I’m pointing out the main only drawback. The speaker does have to be plugged into an outlet to work. I don’t consider that 100% portable. It doesn’t hold any charge, and will not work unless plugged in. (I’m assuming that it just takes too much power to play as loud and with such quality to not be plugged in 24/7.) I’ve had my Speaker for over two years now, I haven’t had one single tiny issue. It still sounds just as great as the day I got it. It’s only gotten a tiny scuff over the years, and I’m rough on my stuff so it’s held up great. If you’re looking to pay a bit more for one of these bad boys, I HIGHLY recommend it.

If you just care about the sound, get this. It sounds awesome. I mean, how such a (relatively) small speaker can deliver this quality of sound, I have no idea. It looks great, it sounds awesome and it's portable and easy to move around...so whats there to dislike? Well, so far, I haven't been able to use Bluetooth with it so I have to connect to it with a cable (I know, so 20th century!). The issue is that Marshall hasn't released PC software (so my laptop is out) and when I tried to download the app to my Android it didn't let me because my Android wasn't the latest generation. Very annoying. So, i guess I have to buy a new new phone so I can use Bluetooth in my new expensive speaker. Not an ideal solution. But it's difficult to be pissed about it because the darn heavy little box sounds sop darn good! So, if you have the newest Android or you don't mind to use a cable to connect, get this speaker. You won't find a better sound for the price. Update 4/26/19 (now it's 5 stars) I haven't had any power issues as reported by other reviewers. I use it almost every day and the sound is as good as it was the first time. I originally gave this speaker 4 stars because of the issues I had with the wireless connection but honestly....who cares? With a speaker that sounds this good and looks so stylish it deserves 5 stars. I have other means to listen to music and I always go back to this little guy. That's the best recommendation I can give. Update 7/18/19 As I type this I'm listening "O Fortuna" from "Carmina Burana" blaring from this speaker and I don't get how be it can be labeled as "mediocre" sounding. Of course it's not stereo sound...it's not supposed to be. That's like asking a Prius to accelerate like a Ferrari and then complain it's too slow. For a stand alone small speaker, this is outstanding as long as you don't expect something that it's not. Is it expensive? Yes it is but, as usual, you get what you pay for and in this case, its quality, reliability and a great sound in a small package. Highly recommended as long as you know what you are buying.

I was making a choice between an amplifier and speakers or the Marshall speaker to hook up to my Fluance turntable in a small home office. I ordered the Marshall to see what it would sound like and if I didnt like it I'd return it and get the amplifier and speakers. I love it. Not returning. Deep sound, you can adjust the treble and bass locally or remotely w bluetooth. Great quality, nice and heavy, with really nice looking controls and led indicators. Plus w the bluetooth I can listen to any songs from my Iphone. However. Updated review. Missing Pre-Amp. I tried connecting to my Fluance turntable. No sound. The Marshall has no pre-amp which my turntable requires.

The classic Marshall design gives it a vintage feel, and the build quality is superb. Bluetooth connectivity is seamless, and the volume packs a punch. Perfect for any music lover looking for a stylish and powerful speaker. Worth every penny!

This is the third marshall in my home. Acton 1 Woburn 3 Stanmore 2 The sound quality is expected from marshall speakers, sounds chambered (love it), not so clear in medium-high frequency as the top notch woburn3 as it does not have dedicated speakers for this. (Need to tune bass and treble to sound like woburn3). It sounds really close to my marshall acton (first version) (very pleasant sound) but with more bass. I”ll recommend it if you find a discount like black friday. The build quality is excelent. I’m playing it from radio reciever to rca as i build a sound system of marshalls and subwoofer (all wirelessly). The main speaker is the woburn 3 (front) The stanmore 2 is playing at the rear with the subwoofer, it does a very nice job complementing the main speaker and sub. The auto on/off works but only turning it off, i have to wake up with a button. If i need another speaker i would buy marshall again, never disappointed me.

Super geluid! Makkelijk in gebruik =)

It's a beast. One of the best speakers. You never gonna regret on purchasing it. The sound quality, built quality, clarity and the simple design are upto the mark. The audio is very crystal clear. It's not expensive for its value. If one finds it expensive then save money for a while and then purchase it, instead of spending less money on other speakers. There's only and only one thing I feel missing in this, there should be a strap or handle bar to pick it. But still, go for it.

Un tocco di classe in sala! Acquistata la versione bianca la cassa Marshall suona che è una meraviglia, messa accanto e collegata ad un bel giradischi crea un angolo vintage eccezionale e di qualità. Il collegamento via bluetooth necessita dell app marshall disponibile sia per apple che per android, collegata la prima volta poi sara sufficiente accendere la cassa con il suo interruttore on off e si collegherà automaticamente al vostro telefono, tablet o qualsiasi altro dispositivo. La qualità del suono è eccellente, i bassi profondi vivendo in un appartamento non riesco a superare mai la metà del volume altrimenti si sente troppo forte! La consiglio a tutti un gioiellino per gli amanti della musica

Muy buen altavoz, con un diseño espectacular. Suena de maravilla y queda estupendo en mi salón.

For me it’s the best speaker on the market considering the size. 🤗
