  • Since you specifically asked, i think there is still a big market für "old school" speakers with no wifi connectability or other fancy gadgets. I much prefer the plain and solid, sound-cost prioritising model, rather then the fancy "have a thousand applications and tell you the weatherforcast" device. All it should do is play music as best as possible. Everything added is raising the price and the margin of error.

    • I agree with you. This speaker is 50% in my country right now. And I can see why. What the hell is the point of it other than looking beautiful when there's so many great sounding speakers out there that can be played on battery and can connect into stereo

  • So I had an original Stanmore I (one??) and I LOVED it for years. I moved and gave it to my mom and after a year and a half I treated myself to an Acton III in my new smaller apartment and all I can say is WOW… the Acton III is WILDLY impressive and to be honest for its size savings and cost savings I can’t imagine the Stanmore being worth it. I feel like the choice really boils down to Acton III or go all in on Woburn III. 2 generations later and I can TOTALLY hear the upgrades in sound quality!

  • My choice was made between the woburn and the stanmore and I eventually didn't pick the woburn because it was a bit ovesized/priced for my intended use of a wireless speaker. And I definitely can tell the stanmore III sounds really great in my bedroom and helps me listening to my cds again through the RCA input. I'm just annoyed with the loss of bluetooth pairing that occurs when I don't use my pc after 10 minutes or so, forcing me to pair again, and the latency when watching a video. I think I'll keep the bluetooth for the smartphone, and plug the pc to the jack input. But yes, the Stanmore surely is the right choice for a bedroom!

  • Dear Marshall speaker users, I recently switched from the Stanmore 1 speaker to the Woburn 3, connecting it to my Audio Technica LP60 with a built-in preamp. I've noticed an issue while playing vinyl on this setup: the maximum volume with the Woburn 3 via RCA seems to be about 50% of what I got with the Stanmore 1. Any insights on why this might be happening? No issues with playing digital music

  • At first, my choices were between Stanmore and Woburn. In terms of sound quality, Woburn definitely nailed it, but it's too big and bulky, and it doesn't really aesthetically fit in my room. Then I found out that Marshall has another model named Acton. I'm getting an Ikea Vittsjo shelf just like the one in the video 0:30 , both Stanmore and Acton fit perfectly on the shelf. Now my choices will be between Acton and Stanmore.

  • For anyone wondering it is a huge disappointment, "it fills the room" they say... it barely fills 30 Square meters. The bass is so bad it doesn't even make the leaf blow. Also the sound is so sharp even with treble at 0 some songs screams like nails on the chalkboard. This was the greatest disappointment of a speaker purchase in my life. Absolutely no doubt about that, I'm so disappointed by the performance of this (i would even call it a speaker) that I will stay as far from Marshall products as possible. I will never touch their products again. I purchased this product from a verified Marshall vendor too, brand new, $600. I've never purchased Marshals products before also, so I wouldn't say I had any bias towards them. This product definitely sucks, so I'll be returning it back tomorrow morning. This also makes me loose all my respect to these "KZhead partners channels" claiming it to be "the deal". What a joke, y'all must be paid and bought for by Marshall. Anyway, I'll never come back to any of these types of channels nor buy any marshall products ever again. I just hope for anyone caring to read this, please stay away from this garbage brand. I heard rumours that they were sold to someone else, maybe this is the reason they are now terrible? I don't know. I also can't say anything about the other models as I haven't tried them. However, for sure stay away from Wooburn III its a scam!
