Marshall speakers have been blowing away music fans for over 60 years, made famous by iconic acts like The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Eddie Van Halen, and many more. Now you don’t need to build and plug into your own Marshall stack in your home for their trademark sound — Marshall’s Acton III Bluetooth Home Speaker brings all the top-quality sound in a smaller, wireless form, and it’s on sale at Amazon for just $200, matching its all-time low price.
There’s no complex setup needed to get the Acton III up and rocking — it’s as easy as a Bluetooth 5.2 pairing with any compatible device, or hardwiring via the 3.5mm audio input, and this freestanding tabletop-sized, easily portable speaker kicks out the jams with far bigger and better sound than you would ever expect from a Bluetooth home speaker.
60 Watts of Great Sound
The Acton III is an upgrade over its predecessors, with a wider soundstage for even more and better sound. The 60-watt output is perfect for large rooms, with a range of up to 10 meters. It’s also a cool and attractive visual enhancement for any room, designed to look like the famous Marshall amps and speakers of the classic rock era, except in smaller, 10.24 x 5.91 x 6.69 inch size and weighing only 6.3 pounds. It’s also battery powered so it can be easily moved to any space regardless of proximity to an AC outlet.
The top of the Marshall Acton III has the same bronze control panel and knobs for bass, treble, and volume. (Sorry, it does not go up to 11.) Switching between the 3.5mm aux port and the Bluetooth 5.2 wireless connection is done with a simple push-button. There is a Marshall app that goes with the Acton III that can be used as a remote control and also lets you do wireless software upgrades, but the speaker runs perfectly well without the app.
The Legend Lives
The ear-blasting Marshall stack — a literal wall of Marshall amps and speakers — was made famous in the ’60s by The Who’s Pete Townshend and quickly adopted by Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Hendrix, who used a stack of four 4×12 Marshall cabinets at Woodstock in 1969. Thankfully you don’t need those enormous stacks in your home for great Marshall sound, and your neighbors will appreciate if you keep it to just the Acton III Bluetooth Home Speaker. It’s back to its all-time low price of $200 right now at Amazon, a terrific price for a wireless speaker that looks at good as it sounds.
