Marshall Stanmore II Wireless Bluetooth Speaker - Black (UK)

Product Information

And for the speakers that support syncing within a multi-speaker system, we used them as such in multiple configurations. In her free time, you'll catch her travelling the globe – the perks of being a freelance tech expert – tending to her plants when at home and, but of course, planning her next big trip. Si la connectivité sans fil est devenue un must-have des enceintes portables, l'Enceinte MARSHALL STANMORE II se distingue aussi par sa connectivité filaire.

DXOMARK timbre tests measure how well a speaker reproduces sound across the audible tonal range and takes into account bass, midrange, treble, tonal balance, and volume dependency. It’s safe to say that I wasn’t disappointed, it may not be packed full of top-tier features, but what it does do it does very well.

Generally speaking, any speaker equipped with a physical line input has the potential to connect to a smart home device. If you’re not settled on a virtual assistant, we recommend choosing carefully, as this situation shows you’ll have to live with your choice in the future. Although you can use the microphone button to activate Alexa, it’s far easier to do this with you voice - if you want to play music through Spotify, simply say “Alexa, play Spotify”, and your music will resume wherever you left off. If you feel the need to push this speaker beyond its singular capabilities, our testing found that the Bose SoundLink Revolve+ II's appropriately titled "party mode" allowed seamless pairing with other Bose SoundLink speakers. If those mid frequencies were a little clearer, it would be a great choice for even the most discerning audiophile, but as things stand, we feel it’s more suited to casual listeners.

It sounds great and looks handsome when sitting on its charging dock in your living room, and then it can easily be moved into the backyard to provide a harmonious soundtrack for volleyball games and barbeques. It even sports IP56 water/dust resistance, meaning it can shed pool splashes and rain showers without harm. You need to use Alexa, or your phone when connected via Bluetooth to control music playback on the Stanmore II, and it also supports Spotify Connect. Thanks to acoustic noise cancellation, the Stanmore II Voice can hear you from across the room, without being distracted by any music already playing through the speaker.Having an app that can communicate with your speaker also allows for more customization of settings.
