Stockwell II Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Black and Brass

If sound quality is your biggest concern, you’ll be extremely happy with this. It will fill a bedroom or a living room without issue, but it doesn’t do tremendously well outside or with other loud noises, however for its size that’s expected. Other speakers—JBL flips for example—perform better in the loudness category, but the quality is much better with the Stockwell. The bass is tremendous and can really bring it out where it goes unheard on other devices. The knobs also allow for customization as you swap through different genres. Visually, it looks and feels like a quality speaker. No cheap plastic. The frame feels like a durable rubber and the metal wire over the speaker is a nice touch. Even the handle (which is really straightforward to install) doesn’t feel flimsy. An underrated feature with this speaker is its charge time and battery life. You can go 8 hours on a low-to-mid volume and use less than half the battery. A full charge takes less than an hour.

So nice, I use it all the time inside and outside. I’ve had it a year now and continues to keep lasting charges. Great sound!!

Excellent sound. Great bass.

I tend to scour the internet for hours of reviews and YouTube videos and any information I can when it comes to audio/video/PC part purchases. It was between this, the older Denon Envaya and Anker Soundcore Motion+.(price point between 100 - 200.) I snagged the Stockwell II on WHD for 140 and it is undoubtedly the best BT speaker in my small collection. Moving up from mainly a Divoom Outdoor2 it's such a difference. The sound is FULL and the onboard EQ edjustments are a real luxury. Bass is balanced, not boomy! Not muddy! Very clean. For those who don't know the Outdoor2 and Stockwell II both have drivers on both the front and back of the speakers. The soundstage and stereo separation effects this does has now become a must-have for me. I don't think I can't use a BT speaker that doesn't produce "360" sound in this way. The Stockwell 2 is the best off-axis, walk around the house, portable speaker I can think of. It sounds great from so many angles instead of just front and center. I love this thing. The black and brass version is super sleek. Main cons: It's not super duper loud. If you're taking this outside with other noises you'd be better off with a larger boombox style speaker. This probably won't cut it for you. Volume settings 1-5 *are* pretty low vs. other boomier, muddier, mono sounding BT speakers. 6-8 are mostly where I stay 9-10 imo are plenty loud and would definitely disturb my upstairs neighbor. In conclusion, the Stockwell 2 is all about sound quality. And it provides that whether you're at 10% or 100% volume - across all genres. Extreme metal, synthwave, R&B, you name it, it's got you covered. Drop any bias towards the Marshall brand name - this speaker lives up to any hype and is worth every penny.

Great unit. Was a bit worried that it wasn't loud enough when I first got it, then I remembered that you can control the volume not only with the knobs on this unit but also with your phone; once I jacked up the volume control on my phone, it was louder than I'll probably ever need it to be. The sound is noticeably richer/fuller than a cheaper, smaller portable Marshall speaker I tried, so it was an easy decision to keep this one and return the other. The other reason I prefer this unit is this one has treble and bass controls. I'm not sure how I feel about the strap, so I'm glad it can be tucked behind the unit out of sight, and I'm glad it's detachable. It looks like an adorable little baby amp without the strap. The unit was very easy to pair with my phone and didn't require installing a new app. It came with a charging cord but not the chunky little cube that the cord plugs into to plug into an electrical outlet, which was a little disappointing, but I had another one that I use for another purpose that I was able to use, so I guess we're saving the environment by not having a dedicated chunky cube for this unit, which admittedly I don't anticipate needing to charge very often. All in all I'm very happy with this speaker; I'm deducting one star only because it would be nice if it could go louder, given the price. It's just barely loud enough but it would be nice if it could knock my socks off and be something I could be confident would be loud enough for a house party.

I love this speaker. I bought it because my Anton speaker needed to plugged into an outlet and I wanted something I can take anywhere. Great sound. Marshall knows what they are doing when it comes to making Bluetooth speakers. 20 hours battery life and music comes from both sides. Anytime I take my Marshall speakers anywhere, someone always ask me where did I get it and how great it sounds. I expect this speaker to last years because my Anton has lasted me almost a decade and it still sounds great.

Well worth the momey ,have had no issues and it's April 30th . This was gifted Dec 25th for my husband who is a musician and he says the quility for what it is and what he uses it for is superb! This product has been dropped ,thrown , left outside daily and used in the southern Texas heat so I'm pretty sure it can withstand Satin himself . Sound is excellent and gain is nice and clear !

This is gonna be a long detailed review for those of you that really like a lot of detail! 1. I am a previous customer of a Marshall, portable speaker - Kilburn 1 - I’ve had this for a few years and I have yet to ever have a problem with Bluetooth pairing. I only use it when I want to feel surroundsound on my flatscreen TV or I want to plug it to my Crosley record player - so other than that it just sits and waits for me to use it and it is still working till this day! That one cost me a pretty penny as well I think into the $299 range but the reason I was looking for some thing smaller with the handle was the Kilburn original is super heavy. I wanted a smaller Marshall speaker because they look beautiful, I wanted a handle for the portability of moving it between my bathroom my kitchen in my office space when I’m listening to music and podcasts. 2. Let’s talk about the review of the actual product. Spoiler Alert: there isn’t much to say because I could not pair it. I even let it re-charge overnight just in case even though it said it was fully charged at arrival. I tried pairing it with two different iPhones. I don’t need to try anymore than this.! I have owned multiple JBL, portable speakers, and other cheaper brands and pairing has never been a problem! So for any product to take this long to try to pair means that Marshall really made a horrible product or a really big, horrible batch considering the other negative reviews on the Bluetooth pairing, and the item going out after six months or even a year! * the other thing I noticed the very last time I tried to pair it was the moment I turned the volume knob to turn on the device. I heard a split second of a static sound, and I knew that wasn’t good.! This item arrived as a refurbished item so I had gotten it for $145. I was super excited because I buy a lot of Amazon refurbished products including very expensive Apple products, and I can’t tell you how wonderful of an experience I’ve had buying refurbished or used or open box where some products would arrive mostly completely blemish free! And they would last a long time! So I will be returning this and considering this defective when I return it. If it doesn’t work out of the box, it’s not going to work and it’s not a good product and that’s my very strong opinion when it comes to any electronics that you purchase. Marshall, if you’re reading this, considering your other reviews, you made a really bad product you need to reconsider your manufacturer and may be any possible shortcuts I really specifically wanted this for the size of how small it was and the awesome handle that came with it so if you can remake this product, I would still buy and try it in the future! This honestly would’ve been the most perfect size for my little one bedroom apartment and I’m really sad to say I don’t think I want to try paying more for a brand new one considering the reviews that it may end up going out in six months or a year. I have JBL portable speakers that are still going strong and they at least go strong for 2 1/2 years and they cost a third of the price!

This has great sound! Superior quality. Like that it’s water resistant iin case it starts to sprinkle outside and safe for beach. My son had let me borrow his same speaker for vacation and I decided I had to get my own .

Superb sound and bass. Love it so much!

Naçizane odyofilimsi biri olarak sesinin elestirilecek bir yani yok. Ses cikisi cok guclu olmayabilir ancak sesin netligi tiz orta bas dagilimi akustigi odaya yayilimi vb boyutuna gore mukemmel. Agirligi 1.4 kilo ve cantaya koy götüre pek uygun degil. Uzerinde sarkiya mudahale edilemiyor ses disinda. Yanindan uzaklasip geldiginizda bluetooth yeniden baglamak icin dugmeye dokunmaniz lazim. Yeniden baglansa da sarki otomatik calmaya baslamiyor. Ozetle zirt pirt yanindan ayrilmaya pek uygun degil. Pil omru gercekten cok iyi. Bir de bu boyutta subwoofer+ tiz hoparloru bulmak zor kaliteli markalarda. Premium bir urun ancak ihtiyaca gore alinmali. Ozetle bangir bangir degil ancak en kisik seste bile ses dagilimi cok guzel bir hoparlor. Gorsellik olarak da mükemmel. Uzerinde en azindan play pause tusu olsaymis bir de power butonu ses butonuna baglanmasaymis cok daha iyi olurmus

Wow! amazing sound quality for a such small battery-powered Bluetooth speaker?? It's powerful, truetone and deep! the three buttons on top are so handy and useful. I can't stop turning them for different songs for getting the best balance and quality. with the handle, you can carry it anywhere you want, put it next to your computer, on top of the bedside table, outside, it looks good, classic and money! BUY THE BLACK AND BRASS!

Update after Three Year's use __________________________ Mostly this has been very reliable having been in daily use most of the time and surviving being dropped more than once. On one occasion it just locked up, would not turn off or respond in any way, but had a flashing red light. After about an hour or so it seemed to recover and since then it has been nearly ok apart from one quirk. Sometimes when it is still 'awake' and waiting for the next bluetooth input, it will emit a quiet sort of click or scratch sound at intervals of a few seconds. That seems to go away when an actual audio signal is received. One major annoyance - the sound it makes on connect/disconnect is too loud and cannot be adjusted in any way. A purely visual signal would be better. Original review below: ------------------------- Easily carried from room to room. It's ok by the bedside for quiet listening as well as louder when needed. The gold nameplate and knob finish is a nice touch. Generous bass for such a tiny box - better than any transistor radio of a similar size that I ever heard. Bluetooth connection to phone or tablet is excellent. It's good for spoken voice radio as well as watching films or TV, but really shines with music of various types, from folk through jazz and classical, even bass-heavy rock and pop. There is some sort of stereo effect, but not spectacular. Place it near a wall or in a corner for even fuller bass. It has been mentioned elsewhere that the 3.5mm cable connection is flawed, I found that too - the device rapidly goes into a sleep mode in a couple of seconds, then wakes up just after the next track or sound has begun. Having said that, I've used a 3.5mm lead to listen to a talk on BBC R4 and it was ok. Use bluetooth where possible instead, no problems there. This is a modestly powered speaker, if you want ear-shattering volume, then look for something larger and more powerful. At £144 when purchased, a reasonably-priced way to add a bit of oomph inevitably lacking on most built-in device speakers. Overall, definitely recommended.
