![Marshall Emberton 2 VS Bose Soundlink Flex & JBL Flip 6 - [Sound Test]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/AMcsxCgwiVU/mqdefault.jpg)
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!
In terms of sound quality Killburn 2 is better.
What a great comparison. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for testing for different genres of music. Its really helpful for me
Thanks for the review! Helped me make my decision.
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 ☺️
thank you for your comparison it helps a lot ❤❤
Thank you for another great comparison! 👍
Love my little Emberton II, carry it every single day to work, very portable.
Thanks for the review. A comparison between the Middleton and Stockwell 2 would be appreciated.
you mastered making reviews!
Thank you!
Thanks for the comparison, i m waiting Middleton vs Killburn 2
Another good video as always congratulations on your 54k 👏😎🇮🇪
Thank you so much 😀
Good & informative video. Thanks
Great video 🤘🏻😎 you now or they play in stereo mode when you put them in stock mode ? Same as by the jbl charge 5 speakers? Grts from belgium
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 !
Thanks for the video bro. Quick question. Does Emberton produce low sub bass as I can’t hear from my earphone probably at your real ambience you did experience it better.
hello..any distortion in higher volume and max bass when you listen on Marshall Middleton?
You’re right. This is a comparison I wanted to see
Excellant, thorough review! Would love to know the names of songs used in demo.....
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?
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.
Song names?! Especially that electro one and outro...
Does soundpeats sonic have more bass than jbl live pro 2?
Hi! Great video! My question is, can you feel the bass? I've previously owned the Kilbourne 2 and tried on various occasions the emberton 2. While i know not a lot of people are fans of how the bass sounds on the Kilbourne, as a drummer i love that in small to middle size rooms i can feel the bass. In comparison, the emberton, while having more clarity in its low end, i can never feel it unless lets say i try it in a small bathroom or something. Basically will the middleton thump or is it geared for someone who prefers a more neutral sound experience? Thanks once again for the video!
The Middleton does thump, especially when set on the floor.
Thanks for the info, loved the video. I appreciate the Emberton volume was higher innthisntest but what's it like in the real world. For example in a garden with general background noise. Is it loud enough, for example at 40%, or do you find you'd have to crank it up over the noise and therefore lose some quality meaning I should go with the other one in that scenario? Cheers!
Yea, I'd say the Emberton would be good for that. I'd say the Middleton if you're trying to entertain a crowd outdoors.
@@CEONTHEMAKING Great, thanks for taking the time to reply.
Great review, reviews are not just about tech specs…you need to try and demo the product - thanks!
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
Play some contemporary music in the sound comparisons. Thx
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.
Great comparasion.. Nice work. I love that Middleton. Can't wait to order MINE.
sounds so boxsy with that price tho, acton 3 would be a better choice
@@BoazNGK I've heard the acton 2 and it sounds very nice. I still need to hear the 3 as it is designed DIFFERENT.
What is the name of the pop song?
I'm going to get am emberton and action 3.
Really like your channel, man
Thank you bro
Are you able to pair the two together ? I have the emberton 2 but I’m wanting to get the Middleton I was just curious if they can be stacked ?
Yea they can
Emberton II How many cm is its length? to the right
I've been deciding between the Tribit Stormbox Blast and the W-King T11. It would be dope if you could review the W-King T11! I have watched other reviews on both the speakers and while the W-King is likely louder, the main comparison I want is the sound quality and the bass rumble/deep bass. I also found that the W-King T11 needs the newest firmware to be performing at it's best.
I haven't tried any W-king products. Maybe i can get in touch with them.
@@CEONTHEMAKING hopefully, because I love how you review products and describe your opinions on them, even just describing deep and rumbling bass from a product is dope to me since it's one of my criteria.
Please compare flex and middleton
Middleton vs jbl extreme please! 🙏🏽
Name 1 song sample plis🙏
Listening with Beyerdynamics DT770 pro, the Emberton II has the very much better sound. Middleton oversaturates the high freqs to much. With the louder bottom it sounds more scooped. Emberton II sounds more professional in my opinion.
Amazing speakers both of them. It all comes down to the reason you want them. Sound quality is almost 1 to 1. The only difference I think Marshall intended with these 2, is the soundstage and bass, Middleton being more for an outside settling, like beach, park, etc, and emberton being more of a pool party speaker, a room, an open terace, etc.
But both of them perform pretty amazing anywhere, as much as their power lets them to ''fill the area''. No other better choice in this size categories.
Update - Emberton II has slightly better middle range sound. Better for rock, country, vocals, guitar, etc.
I found the Emberton 2 on sale and I was wondering if playing 2 Embertons in stack mode would result in a better sound than a Middleton?
no, just twice as loud.
I think so.
Two Emberton 2s in stack mode side by side turn one around & you have stereo - left & right channel facing both directions.
Increased volume of course , 65% volume on both would equal Middelton @ 100% volume.
Emberton 2s will provide more play time , 65% volume provides 25 hour battery life.
With Middelton @ 100% volume , 8 to 10 hour tops.
Middleton vs kilburn 2 pls
Bro we want killburn II vs middleton which one would be louder
Killburn is louder but Middleton should sound better.
Is the Middleton louder and better sound quality than the new apple HomePod which is also 300?
yes.
It's actually fun how the Emberton sounds better for Electronic
Would still get the Emberton 2 over Middleton, cause I enjoy hearing to the Music over Vocals of any song bieng played, this Emberton 2 still does beautifully. The Electronic, Pop and R&B test tracks solidify this decision. Awesome review. Great work.
Hi we are Marshall wholesaler in china 😊
Is it worth to buy emberton ii just for its aesthetic design? Because i just love the design compared to other brands. 😂
I'd buy the Emberton I instead. Wait until it's on sale for $119. It's a fantastic little speaker.
They can be both connectes to the app ? So if you have them both.
Yes

Yo bro i have question pls answer, Which one is better emberton 1 or willen? Which one should i buy for listen musics? İn 2023
Emberton
@@CEONTHEMAKING ty so much
I had Willen, it sucks. I was disappointed. I had Bose Micro before and it sounded better. Not as loud and sharp but overall better.
@@Nogitsune_Yako ty should i buy emberton 1 ?
@@user-bu9su2xt6x depends on your needs. If you need speaker for personal space or/and small rooms than Emberton is more than enough. If you need a speaker which is able to go loud enough to annoy neighbours than Middleton is the way to go.
Which is the best sound quality?
Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro 2
Apple Airpods Pro 2
Huawei Freebuds Pro 2
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3
Sony WF1000XM4
Sony Linkbuds
Jabra 7 Pro
Jbl Live 2 Pro
Samsung buds 2 pro
I've HiFi speakers for home, so I want something portable for travel purpose. Do you think based on my need and the price difference (almost half), is Emberton 2 good for me?
I'm a musician.. all i can tell is if you want a small, not too loud but powerful range & tight balancing of sound portable bluetooth speakers, its emberton 2 🤟🏼
can marshall middleton stack with emberton2 ?
Yes
@@CEONTHEMAKING Thanks
Which one to buy?
Killburn 2 or Middleton
Middleton
I have the Emberton II. It’s a convenient design & great if in a pinch…like if there’s no nearby power outlet…or you’re out of town on vacation/hotel stay or poolside or at the beach. But there’s no refinement in the sound quality…it sounds horribly muddled (one note bass is a thud…mids are muddy…& the treble is all sizzle)…there’s zero definition to the sound quality.
Alternate title: "Flip 6 vs Xtreme 3"
Спс
Can you compare them with the willen
I have a video comparing the Emberton and the Willen. I dont think it would be fair comparing the Willen and the Middleton, though. haha.
@@CEONTHEMAKING I know but it would be fun
@@frozengamer3030 it would be foolish

Middleton vs charge 5?
If you like rock music, stay away from the charge 5. I just bought the ND version. It does have good volume & bass. The mids & highs sound dull & lifeless.
I went into the JBL APP, & took out some of the bass.It helped some, but
still, the highs just seemed average at best. Looked at the specs on manual: 30 watts for the cone driver, 10 watts for the tweeter.
Should've been more like 25 & 15.
Now, I've read other reviews where other consumers bought the TL or TT version, & the mids & highs were much better. Hope this helped you out.
Also, to find out what version it is, just turn the box over, & read the serial number. It's the first 2 letters before the numbers. Good Luck.
bro just wanted to know your opinion
I ordered the bose soundlink flex yesterday
I was going to use it by dual pairing with soundlink micro
Should I return it and save for middleton?
I just want good sound quality loudness doesn't bother me much
Soundlink flex is a great speaker! I think you'll be pleased.
@@CEONTHEMAKING Thank You
Last year I bought the Soundlink micro and the flex came out right after
Budget issues kept me from exchanging the micro for the flex
Honestly enjoying the micro till now and had enough to buy the flex
Just to see Middleton 😂 was confused but I'll trust your ear
@@reign2027 Return it and save! I have a Soundlink II and am a huge Bose fan(501's and 301's in the home theatre). The Middleton is a very large brick, but it produces sound on 4 sides and that sound is full. I only had an afternoon with the Middleton so I am not by any means an expert on it but mine is on the way and I am now saving for either the Tufton, Emberton II, or another Middleton. Once I get mine I will borrow the Middleton again. I will stack them and report back.
@@REPmn82 Middleton is rather expensive
But the 4 side surrounded sound interested me
But I think I'm fine with the Bose for now and will buy sennheiser ie200 for travel entertainment
That's what I was thinking on
But will wait for your reply and experience just to know your opinion again
The sound seems muffled in the Middleton. The Emberton II is more clear.
The Middleton sounds too sharp for my U40 ears. I prefer the Emberton II.
The vocals on the Middleton sounds airy and diffuse mmmm.............
Another superfluous Marshall speaker. It sounds just like the other Marshall speakers. The only difference is in the bass, sometimes less and sometimes more.
I feel like Marshall speakers is for rock and jazz or acoustic type of music marshall sound bad at hip-hop and r&b for its price
Sound between 2 divides is too long, should be 5~10sec
I own both. It's Middleton all the way. Not even close.
have you had any issues with charging/battery life? lot of reviews online where people have issues with the Middleton
@@eyeluxea2817 No issues at all. Now, it may not get exactly 20 hours on a full charge, but it comes close. It depends on your volume and bass setting. I would not recommend playing it above 60-70% volume. That is plenty loud. Bass and Treble setting at 5. Some guy mentioned he distorted out his Bass at 70-80% volume. There is no reason to turn it up to that volume.
@@cpblues thank you! I'm liking the smaller size of the Emberton but having the quality that much better is worth it!
The emberton ii has better vocals, natural n wide, which rather seem too processed n thin on Middleton. Totally disappointed especially for the price
I also see the emberton 2 has better vocal , middleton seems processed n thin , disappointed
@@nicholaschanvn it was totally needless. The vocals don't stand out for a speaker that size. Very poor. They could have focused on adding other features to the speaker to justify the price. I listened closely and the B&O A1 2nd generation has better vocals n it's not even 1/3 of the size of Middleton
@@jay-ti7kd Middleton's only advantage is that it has good looks. i don't like the design style of jbl , anker , sony . I bought Middleton hoping to hear good rock music, but I was disappointed, because it even lost to emberton 2.
@@nicholaschanvn I recently ordered Middleton. Got it for 230$
I may well cancel the order and buy two Bose soundlink flex so I can play them in stereo. Giving the feedback I'm getting. The vocals are two thin. The same reason I returned my motion boom, in addition it looks horrible🤣
@@jay-ti7kd I also bought an anker boom, it only has good bass, but the mid and high are bad, the appearance is too bad. That speaker was destroyed by my brother.
R&B 13:25 emb2 14:21 middleton
Hiphop 15:17 emb2 16:10 middleton
I don't think I'd ever buy either. Most of my audio today is either Sennheiser or Klipsch. Listening to this on Klipsch computer speakers my first thought was that my 1980's boom box had better sound. This just seems to be a bluetooth speaker that looks like a Marshall amp and is made for its cool factor and not the actual sound quality.
these type of videos are so pointless, anyone with half a brain can figure out that something called physics, takes into play here. Obviously, the larger speaker will overall sound better. It all comes down to sound preference, and, portability for one’s personal use.
And budget. But it good to hear the ACTUAL sound rather than having to use your imagination and knowing intellectually how much better a speaker will sound.
Buy marshal Kilburn little expensive than this two but worth
