If you're looking for a high-end Bluetooth speaker to use with your smartphone or tablet, the Marshall Acton is about the fanciest it gets for a Bluetooth speaker option.

This speaker can only connect to wifi with the google home app, but it was easy enough for it to find the speaker. I had no problems with setup or keeping it connected. However, the acton has no RCA connection for input, which as of 11/2018 the page is still incorrect.

Consumer electronics companies are always looking for a brand to convince is to part with our cash, and by now all brands with any kind of recognition have already been licensed to Chinese gadget-makers.

Music has depth and detail; AirPlay; ChromeCast & Spotify Connect; Simple multi-room music; Retro styling

Very expensive; Frequent drop-outs; No portability options; Google Home too baked-in

Loving my speaker, cool & quirky with a great sound

I was sceptical before buying because I have only ever bought iPod docking stations as standalone speakers and I preferred hi fi systems in the past. I don't own any CDs any more as we have Deezer Premium and Amazon music so I thought I would try a Bluetooth speaker.

Great speaker with great sound. It sounds much better than either of my Bose Bluetooth speakers with much better low end and sparkling highs. It isn't cordless and it needs to be plugged into a power source to work, but the sound quality makes up for it.

I got this for my partner for Valentine's Day and he loves it. He drags it around inside, outside, into the shed. Great sound, perfect size

Had this a few weeks now.. it's been great for an outdoor party, indoors in the garden room etc. Mainly used Bluetooth with music on our phones / iPad, but have also used the stylish cable with my itouch. I love the style and impressive sound quality of this product. Money well spent.

"Worth it. Completely. If you're looking for something to start that multi-room collection start now with this little one. "

Fanatic quality and sound - very good price for the quality!!! LOVE!
