Community Reviews
The Emberton II is a compact Marshall Bluetooth speaker that stands out for its design and strong sound for the size. The consumer line is described as solid rather than a cheap rebrand, and the speaker has been praised for punching above its weight. The main caveats are the $99.99 price and the older Bluetooth setup, since Emberton II only supports SBC. It can pair with another Emberton II, while Emberton III cannot, so this model has a useful edge for stereo setups.
The Emberton II design is credited to the Swedish industrial design firm Norra Norr, not just a generic factory design.
The speaker can deliver strong sound for its size, with listeners describing it as punching above its weight.
Marshall consumer-level products are described as solid and not merely cheap rebrands.
Emberton II can pair with another speaker of the same model for expanded stereo-style listening.
The SBC-only Bluetooth codec can increase latency and reduce sound quality compared with codec options.
The $99.99 price is questioned, with some doubt about whether it is worth paying for the Emberton II.
Emberton II is not comparable to Marshall's older guitar-amp products, and some question the premium pricing.
Emberton III cannot pair with another speaker, which can limit multi-speaker setups if you upgrade later.

As far as design, the consumer line doesn't have its origins in either the main Marshall group nor some random Chinese factory shop recruited by a PE firm. They're from the Swedish industrial design firm Norra Norr, which has done a few licensed brand projects (WeSC, Marshall, and also a mediocre in-house one called Urbanears). Marshall bluetooth speakers are among the best in their category and compare well with Bose. I'm not sure if Norra Norr is still involved, but the brand's new models still sound good.
