Thanks for the comparison. I've been using the Kilburn for years and for some time now the Emberton, which I bought directly from Marshall for 109 euros. I bought the Emberton to listen to music on the go in the park and in the garden. And I am very happy with this product. Nice and handy, not too heavy and easy to stow away in a backpack. Rich and balanced sound. The Middleton is certainly also a great loudspeaker, but for my purposes it is already too big and too heavy. And my Kilburn, now well run in, also does a good job at home. For travel and outdoor use, I find the Emberton the better choice.

It would be nice to see a comparison between the Middleton and the Kilburn II. Thanks for what you do!

i like that he included 6 Music genres. thats enough for everyone to decide if they would like it or not.
most people that do these reviews do a sound test as they play some random beats on the speaker and thats it.
i really care for rock. and real instrumental music has a harder time sounding great on bluetooth speakers.
i know Marshall is famous for making great legendary guitar amplifiers. so i expect their speakers to sound great for rock music. and they do.
thats why i'm happy to own the emberton 2. other bluetooth speakers make low guitar sounds bassy and unnatural sounding.
it sounds so muddy its almost unbarable to listen to. but this one is definitly a great option for all genres. :)

Thanks for your comparison, these two speakers are in my list, Middleton has more details and more powerful bass, I think it will be a good speaker for camping ☺️

Emberton 2 sound is clearly winner under 75% volume.
For those that want more volume.
Two Emberton 2s in stack mode will get job done + full directional stereo sound can be had by putting speakers side by side & turning one of them around.
Both left & right channel will be facing same directions.
Set volume to 60% on both = Middelton @ 100% volume.
Can't forget about battery life, with such setup the Emberton 2s @ 60% volume will provide 25-27 hour play time.
Middelton @ 100% volume will provide 8 - 10hr playtime.

2 Emberton 2s in stack mode for the win.
You get more flexibility in use, better sound @ same price as one Middelton.
Hopefully Marshall rep is viewing this taking it in.
They need to lower Middelton price tag.
Sound firmware update much needed as well

Another good video as always congratulations on your 54k 👏😎🇮🇪

Middleton definitely has a warmer sound and without giving up the quality of highs the Marshall is so famous for. With speakers, bigger is often better.

I finally got me the emberton 2 in cream. I absolutely love it. It sounds very different from my others. I have alot. It sounds very smooth and soft. The clarity is very nice. The bass is clean and deep. Its just not in ur face and overpowering like the bose flex or JBL flip 6. But a very nice sound that stands out. Very nice build quality. I could listen to this speaker all day.

Thanks for the review. A comparison between the Middleton and Stockwell 2 would be appreciated.

Thanks for the review! Helped me make my decision.

Ah Jeez, I just bought the 1st Gen Emberton a couple months ago. Funny thing is I was thinking exactly what the Middleton has accomplished and specifically what kind of customer would buy the Middleton. What if Marshall made a larger and more robust version of the Emberton?

[RTimo]

this will depend on where you use the speaker. for day to day indoor to outdoor with just a couple of friends emberton 2 is the way to go, but if youre with more than a couple fo friends and in a bigger Environment, go for the middleton. 

honestly, in comparison part i prefer the sound of emberton 2. 

not being biased bec i have emberton 2, but crisp and depth wise i prefer the emberton 2 (from the video). great video! this was just released in the PH thought of buying it but came across on your video. thanks !
