Marshall Stanmore II Wireless Bluetooth Speaker, White - NEW

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.

It’s a gift for my friend and she loves it so much!!!! The sound quality is perfect and the shape too. Retro leather shell, advanced color matching, full of literary and artistic sense, It’s pretty itself there already without doing anything.!

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!

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.

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 7/18/19As 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.
