Marshall Middleton II Black and Brass

Marshall Middleton II Black and Brass — Portable Bluetooth Speaker with 360° Sound

The Marshall Middleton II Black and Brass portable Bluetooth speaker packs the brand's amp-inspired DNA into a 1.8 kg road-ready chassis. Built for life outdoors, it delivers 360° True Stereophonic audio that fills any space from any angle. The Middleton II is the right choice for listeners who want stage-amp looks and loudness without giving up modern wireless convenience.

What Sets the Middleton II Apart

Inside the sealed cabinet, two 3-inch woofers and two 0.6-inch tweeters pair with twin passive radiators, driven by a four-channel Class D amplifier array. True Stereophonic processing projects stereo from every direction, and a built-in microphone turns the unit into a hands-free speakerphone. The USB-C port doubles as a power bank for topping up a phone on the go.
