Stanmore III Bluetooth Home Speaker - Wireless Plug-In Bookshelf Speaker | Loud Stereo Sound with Bass and Treble Controls | Record Player Compatible with RCA or 3.5 mm Input - Cream

I have a decent collection of Hi Fi gear, from vintage Yamaha, NAD, and Klipsch, to Primare and Definitive Technology. It can get a little complicated when you just want to "turn it on and listen to background music." My wife needed something simple to satisfy that requirement. And this unit does it in spades! Connectivity with this unit is a non-issue: turn it on, pair it with your device, and play--you do not need an app to get it up and running. The controls could not be more simple: there are six in all, but the volume, and maybe the bass and treble are all you will really need. And now there is the quality, WOW! The look and feel of quality on this unit is beyond ANYTHING that I have spent a mere $300.00 on! And that quality extends into the sound. Sound is so subjective that I am not even going to try to describe it, except to say that it is BIG, CLEAR, and DETAILED. I have never heard anything like this at this price point. We have a small house (1300sqft), and this thing fills it well. My wife loves it! Just a point that I must mention, but that in absolutely no-way reflects on the quality and value of this unit: they (Marshall) claims that this unit produces a wider sound stage than its predecessor. And while it might do just that, I have never heard the previous model for comparison. While I can state from first-hand experience that the sound is HUGE, especially when one considers its size, I cannot say that a full stereo sound-stage has been achieved. With that said, this unit is PERFECT for anyone who wants incredibly simple ease-of-use, HUGE sound, beautiful retro looks with all the modern tech you need--and that won't break the bank--well, this is it.

WOW!!! This speaker IMO just blows the Klipsch one plus series out of the water! Powerfull, amazing Bass But Very well balanced warmer sound , and absolutely the widest soundstage I ever heard from a home blu tooth speaker! fills my medium sized living room amazingly. Very highly recommended!

A nice in home speaker for the price. Sounds pretty good and looks great! Very nostalgic look for us 70’s kids! Brings back lots of memories of those crazy concerts my friends and I attended. Gotta admit I’m considering purchasing the Woburn 3 in the near future. Probably should have done my homework better because if I had it to do over I probably would have opted for the Woburn 3! But all in all the Stanmore is a quality speaker for the price!

I’ve always been a wired speaker fan since I was a kid but had to jump on the Bluetooth bandwagon out of necessity and convenience. I had a Sonos Play for my main house speaker which was pretty good and I really like the JBL flip series and boom box for portability and battery life and outdoor speakers. I received a Marshall Acton III as a service award gift at work and was blown away by the warmth of the sound from compressed streaming music sources. I just bought the Stanmore III as a Christmas gift to me from me and I’m even happier with it than the Acton. All the superlatives describing this unit are accurate and deserved. The sound quality is first class, the style is timeless, it’s east to use and pairs with Bluetooth with no issues. The AUX input is an added bonus to plug in my CD player.

The sound quality on this speaker is excellent. The audio is clear, well-balanced, and has strong presence that fills the room nicely. I also really like the design—it looks clean, classic, and fits well with my home setup. The performance has been very consistent, and the sound carries well without distortion at normal listening levels. It does require charging to use, which is expected for this type of speaker, and the overall experience has been very positive so far. Overall, it has been a great addition and I’m very satisfied with the quality and performance.

My first blue tooth speaker was a Bose unit. I've had good luck with Bose products in the past but that all changed when I bought their speaker. Nice in it's appearance but that's all I can say about it. I downloaded the Bose phone app which also turned out to be a joke. Nothing on the damn thing except a lot of Mickey Mouse bull,. that didn't help. As far as paring went I got it to pair just once that's it. When I did have it paired it had not much more volume than my speaker on my phone has! Imagine that? I have some hearing loss so I bought it for that. Ok the Marshall Stanmore III was a whole different deal. I downloaded their ap and it all went pretty well. Their ap isn't anything to write home about either. But it does have some troubleshooting suggestions along with an owner's manual. I couldn't get it to play the audio on my desktop (Windows 10) My desk top is an older computer so maybe that's part of the problem? It pairs up easily with my Samsung TV and my Samsung phone. However I can't get the phone's audio to play thru the speaker? I don't know what's up with that? The sound is the best part. Lots of bass and treble. The knobs on it remind me of my Marshall amplifier. This speaker has enough volume in it to drive you out of the room although I didn't crank it up that high. Adding it to my Samsung QL60 TV made a very nice addition to it. The cheesy speakers on the TV are awful. I think I may also add the Marshall Woburn III speaker to my collection. That thing is just awesome. I didn't want to spend the money on Marsha;;s version of a blue tooth speaker until I liked it. I think I'll keep this one, theres some things I wish I could get working on it such as the lack of phone conversation (the speaker phone just plays on the phone when I try. It plays music from my phone just fine. I think Marshall has a great series of speakers now and it's about time someone made and easy and great sounding blue tooth speaker. Would I recommend this to my friends? Yes

Didn't disappoint. Very good. As expected. Easy to connect to Bluetooth. Great bass & treble & volume. Happy with purchase.

Good quality sounds

Excelente produto. A caixa é multifuncional e lógico, decorativa. Não é a potência sonora que derruba um prédio, mas se essa não é a proposta, pode comprar sem medo. Uso tanto a função Bluetooth, quanto a entrada RCA. Ótimo som.

Do yourself a favour and don't buy this brand-new on Amazon; chances are they will send you box that's clearly been opened (manufacturer's box no less, even though i requested double boxing) and, more egregiously, one with a speaker that has a fairly noticeable scratch to the back of the fragile leatherette exterior. Luckily the quality is top-notch and the sound is as expected.

A qualidade do som é incrível, dá mais gosto de ouvir músicas. A entrega foi rápida

el sonido es increible, y se ve muy bonita en mi sala
