The Marshall Emberton III Bluetooth speaker sounds as good as it looks.

ZDNET’s key takeaways

  • The Marshall Emberton III Bluetooth speaker is now available to purchase from the official Marshall site.
  • This tiny speaker can produce much louder sound than you might expect (without distortion), and the sound is quite detailed and accurate.
  • The Marshall app doesn’t include a custom EQ, which would greatly benefit the Emberton III.

Ah, the Marshall sound. I cannot tell you how many concerts I’ve attended where a stack of Marshall amps stood sentinel behind the musicians, cranking the sound well past 11. Every time I see that sight, I know something special is about to happen.

Needless to say, when Marshall wants me to review something for them, I’m more than happy to do so. Such is the case with the Marshall Emberton III<!–> Bluetooth speaker. This tiny (approx 6″ X 3″ X 2.5″) speaker produces more sound than you’d expect (without distorting). When you combine the sound with the look (it resembles a small Marshall amp head), you get a small speaker that packs a sonic and aesthetic punch.

Also: I’m bringing this Bluetooth speaker to every cookout this summer – and you should too

Simply put, this thing rocks.
