Emberton III Portable Bluetooth Speakers, Wireless, IP67 Rating Dust & Water Resistant, 32+ Hours Playtime, Quick Charge - Black & Brass

I bought this excellent little portable speaker once and loved it so much I bought a second one. Which? consumer organisation research recommended it as one of their Best Buys and that's why I bought the first one, having assessed what I needed. Light and very portable - although I am not sure whether it might be easier at times to be able to hold it using a handle of some sort? Jury's out on that one, I'm waiting to see! So easy to get set up, charged up and linked to your phone. The sound quality is excellent and you download an app to your phone which enables you to tweak it so the bass is more prominent or less prominent, allowing you to focus more on a voice (whether singing or speaking - useful for devotees of an audiobook). One of the unexpected bonuses is that you can link a second speaker to the first one. In a smaller space (because the phone links to the speaker by bluetooth, so you can't have it too far away) you can have two speakers and either enjoy stereo in one room, or keep a speaker in different rooms and enjoy the sound throughout the entire (small) house, which is my preference when doing housework. This unexpected extra feature adds to the functionality of the speaker. For me, two of these speakers and my phone easily replace the sound systems I used to use. For a smaller home, I find this is ideal. It can still achieve an extremely loud volume but I like my neighbours so I haven't tested it to maximum. I'm very pleased with my purchase. Look out for some price variations, because this goes up and down with about £60 variance and it can make purchasing one of these incredible value for money. Highly recommended. Great sound quality. Long-lasting battery life. It looks well-made and sturdy. Easy to tuck away out of sight when you're not using this because it's so small (light enough to carry in one hand) but produces bigger and better sounds than you would expect.

Right out of the box, this speaker impressed me with its iconic Marshall design, vintage vibes with modern toughness. It feels solid and premium, and looks like something you'd proudly display, not just stash away between uses. Now to the best part: the sound. The Emberton III punches way above its weight class. Crystal-clear mids and highs, with deep, rich bass that you can actually feel, not just hear. It fills a room with ease, and even outdoors it holds its own without sounding tinny or distorted. What really surprised me, though, was the battery life. I’ve taken it on a weekend trip and still didn’t need to charge it when I got home. Marshall claims up to 30 hours, and I believe it. Plus, USB-C fast charging is a welcome bonus. The controls are intuitive and tactile, and pairing was instant. I also appreciate the multi-directional control knob, it’s a nice retro meets modern touch that actually improves usability. If you're looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker that combines style, sound quality, and stamina, the Emberton III is a nobrainer. It's become my go-to for everything from chill evenings on the patio to impromptu road trips as its lightweight and portable.

First off, I am not an expert on audio equipment and what I'm about to say is purely my own but I try to be as objective as I can. First, the Emberton II looks sleek. I love the design and simplicity. The emblem is prominent against the all-black finish. The overall texture of the finish feels so good to the touch! I also like that they used red illumination for the battery level and the power indicator. It's subtle for those who have any issue for bright lights. It feels sturdy at less than 1 kg and at that weight, I was initially worried about the quality of the sound. Now for the main event: Sound quality. The first thing I did after unboxing was to immediately pair it with my phone (I haven't tried the app but connectivity seems to be no problem for me, using the standard bluetooth pairing). Now, when I test a speaker for the first time, I usually play the theme from Game of Thrones and the Imperial March from Star Wars (I have to hear the clarity of the instruments and enjoy the sound. And yes, I am a fan of those two franchise so sue me). Upon playing, the intro rumble from the Game of Thrones Theme was so clear that it gave me goosebumps! What impressed me was that, there was a definition between the instruments so there was no overpowering one from the other. Next thing I did was to crank up the volume.... Again I am not an expert on these matters but from what I experienced and HEARD, this tiny speaker can really deliver! The same clarity can be heard even at max volume (using my phone as source via bluetooth). Unlike my previous purchases (in fairness, they are smaller and forgivable) where they sound like an empty can, this beast can really deliver even at maximum volume (my apologies to my neighbors downstairs!). I switched to The Imperial March and did the same routine again. What a joy! It delivered the same results that almost made me use to Force! I also played other songs (j-rock, R & B, Old School Rock, Old School Rap) and I was really satisfied. One other thing that I noticed was that the vocals are so clear and prominent, it feels as if I'm using a 3.1 channel audio equipment. My only issue is that it has no 3.5 mm audio socket (I'm an old school) but I believe I can use the USB-C port for that (I have to purchase a separate adapter for it though). Based on the others' opinion, it is possible to plug a 3.5 mm jack. I have yet to try it. Overall, I am happy. I am satisfied. I will not make any recommendations since each and every individual has specific tastes in sound quality but I will say this.. Include this in your list of potential candidates when you are shopping for a portable speaker and give it a shot. All I can say, personally, is that the Marshall Emberton II really exceeded my personal expectations and it was worth every cent that I poured into. Similarly to when I bought my first Marshall (Major IV), I can say I am glued to Marshall for my audio needs and I do not see myself looking at other brands at the moment. That's how satisfied I am.
