Marshall Emberton II Portable Bluetooth Speaker

If you’re an audiophile, you’re gonna love the Marshall Emberton II Portable Bluetooth Speaker in Black & Brass. These speakers deliver music just the way it was meant to be heard—assuming you’ve got a decent recording, of course.

The build quality? Absolutely top-notch. I went for the cream-colored version, and let me tell you, it looks elegant and classy. It fits right into any stylish decor you’ve got going on.

I played it for my husband, who’s a professional musician, and he was so impressed that he immediately ordered one for himself. That’s how good it is! Before this, I hadn’t found a Marshall speaker that I actually liked enough to buy.

Once my husband’s speaker arrived, we decided to test out the stacking feature. After a bit of trial and error to get it working, we were blown away! It felt like we were experiencing spatial audio, especially when you sit right in the sweet spot between the two speakers. He got so excited that he ordered two more Emberton II’s so we could both enjoy stacking.

The only bummer is that it doesn’t stack in stereo. So, you miss out on that cool interplay that stereo recordings usually offer.

To stack them, you only need to connect one speaker to your device via Bluetooth. Then, follow the button-pressing instructions to connect the second speaker without linking it to the same device. They’ll pair up with each other independently while the main one stays connected to your phone or whatever you’re using.

And get this—they’re surprisingly loud!

Now, the Marshall app’s EQ controls aren’t anything to write home about, but you can squeeze out a bit more bass if you fiddle with it.

Overall, I’m really pleased with the Emberton II! I don’t have enough experience yet to comment on the battery life, but so far, it’s been a great addition to our audio setup!

Customer Review

"I wanted a portable 'job site' speaker for my weekend woodworking and yard work projects. When I got the first version of the Emberton, it was the only small speaker in its class equipped with Bluetooth 5.0+, unlike its competitors, which mostly had version 4.0 or didn’t specify. Pairing it with my devices was a breeze. I did find that connectivity with my Apple Watch wasn’t great, but using it with my iPhone worked perfectly.

The standout feature of the Emberton is its 360° sound with True Stereophonic, and let me tell you, it really delivers. The sound quality—especially the bass—is exceptional for such a small speaker, and it can reach impressive volumes. While being waterproof wasn’t a priority for me, dust resistance is essential for my woodworking and yard work.

Charging speed seems reasonable too. I compared it to other Marshall Bluetooth speakers and read a lot of reviews on the Willen and larger models. The Emberton seems to come out on top, even compared to the Emberton 3.

When my first Emberton got stolen, I was left without it for a while and had to use my other speakers. That’s when I truly appreciated the effectiveness of the 360° sound with True Stereophonic. When the Emberton II went on sale, it was an excellent value, so I decided to buy it again!"
