The Stanmore III is a large, room-filling Bluetooth home speaker with strong sound and a classic Marshall look. The sound gets praised as punchy and impressive for its size, and it fits well in a bedroom or office without the clutter of batteries or an amp. The main drawbacks are its lack of portability, the 10 minute shutoff, and reports that some older features like AirPlay and internet radio presets were removed. Compatibility with Stanmore II is also called out as an issue, making it a solid pick for stationary listening.
People wanting a large Bluetooth speaker for a bedroom or office, because it delivers strong sound without battery management and fits a clean desktop setup.
No battery is built in, so it is not really a portable speaker. That also means you do not have to manage charging, which makes it better for a fixed room setup.
Yes, $199.99 is described as a very good deal for a new Stanmore III, especially since the Stanmore IV was just released. It is also considered a strong buy if you specifically want the newer-looking Marshall home speaker rather than a refurb alternative.
Those features were on the original Stanmore, but they were stripped out on this model. If AirPlay or internet radio presets matter to you, this version is a downgrade in that respect.
Great deal, but that's because the Stanmore IV was just released. Not regardless, $200 for the older model is a great deal. The sound is amazing for this size of speaker.
Thanks for posting the Action III link. I was actually waiting for a deal on Action III based on past readings on multiple deal threads. There were users who reported that Action III has a more balanced frequency range with clear mid range, whereas Stanmore has somehow a bit too artificial bass & low-end frequency. The price of $130 for a refurb sounds like right!
