August 20, 2024 – Today Marshall reveals exciting updates to their most loved portable speakers, offering powerful 360° sound to take on the road. Emberton III delivers 32+ hours of battery life in a dust and waterproof format to outlast any party. Meanwhile, the tiny but mighty Willen II is the perfect companion to bring on an adventure with its rugged design and 17+ hours of portable playtime.
“It’s been a pleasure to see this generational update come to life. As always, with our iconic design and Marshall sound in focus, we’ve created something unique in the portable speaker category. On the outside of the speaker, the focus has been on improved material choices and usability, but the biggest update is on the inside. These products are ready for the next Bluetooth technology, LE Audio, enabling Auracast™*. They also continue to deliver surprisingly heavy sound for the size, especially Willen II”, says Hanna Wallner, Product Manager.
The slightly larger Emberton III features True Stereophonic, Marshall’s unique form of multidirectional sound. True Stereophonic is stereo sound, but not as you’ve heard it before. Available exclusively with Marshall products, it allows you to experience superior spatial and binaural sound that flows around you, filling any space.
Although smaller in size, Willen II makes a considerable impact. It has a slightly larger frame than its predecessor to maximize bass and overall acoustic performance. Improved drivers mean every frequency has time to shine, so you’ll hear a balanced sound at any volume you choose.
Emberton III and Willen II have an IP67 dust and waterproof rating, meaning they can be submerged in 1 m (3 ft) of water for up to 30 minutes. The speakers are also Bluetooth LE Audio-ready. This future-proof technology will open a new world of audio-sharing possibilities with Auracast™.
As part of their portable campaign and to celebrate this new range, Marshall has partnered with three musical pioneers who embody the rock ’n’ roll mindset. Suki, Kelvin Krash, and Bohan Phoenix each bring a unique perspective to music, continuing to create on their terms. Together with Marshall, they share a day in their life and their distinctive journeys into the music industry. Discover their stories at Marshall.com.
