About Marshall Emberton II Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Black & Brass
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
87% appreciated the sound quality
The sound quality of this speaker is the best I have heard from any size portable Bluetooth speaker.
The speaker is terrific for background music in my office and kitchen.
I have experienced phenomenal sound quality with the Emberton II speaker for all music genres. It exceeded my $30 pair, which already beat-out all the other more expensive speakers, in the only way it could. Overall, I highly recommend this bluetooth-speaker for its exceptional sound quality.
68% found it easy to connect, but 32% faced difficulties in pairing
Marshall allows pairing of speakers to play the same sound or in stereo, but only when I have two of the same speakers.
The Emberton I has better multi-point than the Emberton II, allowing me to connect two different brand Bluetooth speakers simultaneously and quickly switch between them.
Bluetooth pairing was seamless and impressive, but the application takes forever to discover the device, even when it is already paired.
I paired the speaker with my laptop and it automatically connects, but the sound only comes out of the laptop now. It won't pair with anything else.
