Thanks for the review! Appreciate that you shared your conclusion immediately, and the way you explained things was clear and entertaining. Didn’t feel like I needed to skip ahead at any point
@@MalcolmX96 I would recommend Stanmore bc u can clearly hear the difference even in this video. Acton unfortunately still sounds like a small speaker. If u have larger spaces like living room def Stanmore but maybe for smaller rooms acton.
For me the Stanmore is better. Its going for $350 now. Key differences are the RCA input in the Stanmore is going to be much more versatile for me, I can connect it to my TV and my DVD players. In this category since they're not portable size isn't important, it's pure specs
Cheers Danny P 👌 I bought the acton 3 a few weeks ago because of your review 😉 I've given it a kickin and it's what we call in South Yorkshire UK as a do 'er 💪 gets the job done and not to big to place around the house. Brilliant sound, mint build. It's like a guard dog for the neighbours too. When the acton starts barking they shut up 😂 keep up the top work matey, your a good en Danny 👍
Just bought the Acton III, and it was this video that helped me choose between the acton and the Stanmore. Also your video with all your speakers, where you described the Acton being great for 70's rock. It does sounds great and it punches more than enough for a room. I also had the Emberton 2, and i was expexcting that sound experience. Although the Emberton has that unique signature, the Acton sounds more neutral, as default. So it fits better for a larger variety of musical genres. Love it so far! Thanks for your work and helping us listen to quality sound. By the way... at the store, I couldn't listen the Acton, only the Stanmore was displayed. And I feel no difference at low/mid volume.
@@naveenparuuthi1868 A totally different beast. Gets much louder and keeps its bass to top level. And the sound quality is amazing. If you're not looking for portability, get the Acton. You won't be disappointed. Emberton has a really cool sound signature, but as soon as you turn the volume upper than 60%, the bass vanishes and it sound distorted. So if you are able to listen to your favorite music and you like to play it loud, get the Acton.
You helped me a lot to hear the difference and last month i bought a Acton iii.. waiting for your next video.. Love from India brother.. keep rocking!!!
Great video, very useful to me! I have a 5-year 1st gen Stanmore, which is still great. I'm a great fan of bass but now I'm grabbing an Acton III for its value for money. Woburn still in my dreams, out of my pocket range though. Thanks! ❤
Hi there, you might be able to help me. I have an opportunity to purchase a Stanmore 1 in my country at a pretty good price .. I'm just not sure how it holds up vs the Stanmore 2 or 3... From what you've said you've been happy with your Stanmore 1? Cheers
Recently bought Acton 3 and while the sound quality is good I can’t recommend this speaker for modern music genres like house, it just doesn’t have enough bass. On the other hand it is perfectly fine for rock, classical, vocals and overall midrange just don’t expect much bass from this unit.
This is why I don’t wanna buy the Acton because I listen to lot of house music. And same time I feel like if you gonna buy the Stanmore 3 you might as well spend a little more and get the Woburn 3 but I only need a bedroom speaker so am so confused 🙈
@@curlyboy5540 I ended up ordering the Acton 3 just to see what it’s really like 🙈 will be getting it in few days so will report back. Thank you for the other recommendation will look at that never heard of it ? Is it really good ?
Thank you so much for this video. Seen many videos and couldn’t figure out what to get. I’m sold on the Stanmore! Can connect to home DJ controller, iPhone and Apple TV for home entertainment. Thank you so much!!!!
with my sutdio headphones i directly hear that the Acton is more flat sound .... the Stanmore has more bass but a great hollow in the mids. I prefer the sound of Acton.
Just bought the Acton III and love it, but it very much sounds like small speaker, no matter how awesome the audio quality is. Is this a problem that the Stanmore overcomes? Also, when you test speakers are they straight out of the box? I find that my Acton has greatly benefited from its week of break-in time.
You should Never listen to Any Speaker at Max Volume - it causes Distortion, poor Fidelity and will eventually "Blow-the-Speaker" and Sound like a Kazoo.
I bought the Acton 3 because of the more compact size and it was 120 euros cheaper... quality of both sounds good and the bass on the Acton is still mega! I have it close to a wall with treble at 5 and bass at 6 and it's very good!
I based my purchase more on aesthetics than sound. I bought the Stanmore III yesterday (haven’t gotten it yet). I saw both the Stanmore and Acton in person at a home store and purchased the Stanmore III based on the size. Have yet to hear the audio quality of it in person. My other speakers in my home are Sonos, which I use for streamed airplay music over my phone. I plan to place the Stanmore III on a credenza in my living room to use with my vinyl record player. Aesthetically, Stanmore III has much more of a significant presence than Acton. I also looked at the Woburn but that thing looks too massive vertically for my taste and would overwhelm my living room aesthetically.
I have acton 3 in my bedroom. place it at the corner and you only have to put bass on 2 bar. the bass will fill the room. hear Jean Paul Maunick in the morning... woww..
@@ujikaloerv4 oh yes! It's more than 6 months of use with Acton 3, and never regretted buying it. Screams premium quality! I wouldn't be sure on stanmore 3 haven't used it. But Acton 3 does it all for me easily.
Those aren't passive radiators. They're vents. Passive radiators are like those things you see at each end of a JBL BB3. Vents are cheaper to implement, but allow easy ingress of dust abd moisture into the box, so IP67 rating is not possible.
I had a quick look at JBLs retro & they look awesome & wish I could hear them against marshals lineup. JBL hasent been as good since taken Over by Harmom Cardon, They lost their umth & shear power they used to be known for. I tried a JBL Soundbar with the 10in sub for my TV & it frankly sucked & exchanged it for a Polk audio with smaller sub & it totally blew the JBL away except in hard base. The JBL retro blutooth speakers definitely have my interest tho. They really look beautiful
@alanrossreviews thanks for that info. Ended up with the marshal standmore 3 & while great I now have to take it back because you cannot enjoy music & do anything else on your phone because it shuts the music off when doing so & it's beyond frustrating. Incoming text shuts it off. Trying to scroll on your phone shuts it off & it's so frustrating that I think blutooth speakers suck now & hate to concept because you can't do anything else with your phone while music is playing & that's so worthless to me & frankly down Wright pisses me off to no end.
Now in Amazon the Stanmore II is cheaper than the Acton III, which would you say will be a better choice? The Stanmore II is €249 and the acton III €280.
I kinda get the point...while the Acton sounds more trebly dan Stanmore more balanced, but the treble on Acton sounds a bit more refine, more open compared to Stanmore here. Stanmore sounds a bit darker and not that open (a little boxy?) compared to Acton
why in all photos and videos metal details looks like yellow brass, but in real life they looks like pink gold???! and leather's cream color is more white
My pc speakers reacted better to the low end on the Acton than the Stanmore. That suggests to me that the Stanmore produced bass that caused more trouble (deeper bass) for the CZcams to pc speaker journey to handle.
I sold my Woburn 3 and although I do miss it I can’t complain because I replaced it with a DiamondBoxx L3. Amazing speaker but it just sounded a little “boxy” to me if that makes sense.
I have a question, I’m trying to get my action III to pair with my Crosby C6 record player. Both have Bluetooth and I’ve tried everything but I can’t get the two to pair together. I can pair them both to different devices just fine. When I use the 3.5 jack I don’t get great volume control. Can anyone give me some advice to fix this issue? Or what 3.5 jack should I buy to get more volume? Thanks 🙏🏻
Hello, thanks for this review :) Do you notice any latency on aux input ? I would like to plug Microphone on it but I saw some ppl complaining about this aux input because latency is noticeable.
Hi Danny, I have small room. Which marshall speaker should I buy. I want to buy acton 3 but I wonder if it sounds good even at very low volume. Please suggest which one should I buy.
It's been 4 months. I'd say save some money and get an Emberton 1 or 2. I use mine in a double room around 10x5m2. It's sounding good even in a long room.
Not sure if a fair comparison but I'm torn between the Jbl charge 5 and Acton 3. Heard then in person at the mall, but just to make sure which of these are better for POP music and good bass? I mostly listen to Taylor Swift.
The Acton III is going to be producing a lot fuller sound than the Charge 5. Maybe the Xtreme3 would be a better comparison. Or for a budget - the Tribit Blast or Soundcore Motion Boom + are good.
@@DannyPops we don't have tribit or soundcore in India. Difficult to find. JBL, Bose and Marshall are easily available to check. I wouldn't mind spending a bit more on Acton 3 since I'll also be getting a discount from Marshall but wouldn't want to spend much on the charge 5. Hence wanted to just be sure on what would be a better purchase.
Marshall’s sound signature is a lot better than JBL imo. Also, acton is not portable, it needs constant power supply. On the other hand JBL charge is portable. So you can purchase according to your need..
I have the Woburn 1 and thus stanmore iii in cream and haven't noticed a lot of marks. In terms of cleaning them it'd be like cleaning a pleather car seat I'm guessing... I haven't cleaned them much.
Hi Danny...awesome review....ACTON 3 is currently 299 ( Canadian ) ... 215 ( US ) .....stanmore 3 399 ( canadian ) 290 ( USD ).....would you say thats a great deal and worth the money ? thx bud....cheers from Canada
It really depends on your volume level. I keep mine at a low level (it's in my home office) and have the bass set at 8 and the treble at 10. There are 11 settings for each. I also have my speaker connected to my PC and use Equalizer APO/Peace GUI on Windows to adjust sound.

What is the best setting to have with Acton 3? With the treble bass and voice settings I mean. I'm looking for good clarity and better bass too.
I just keep mine centered on treble and bass.
It really depends on your volume level. I keep mine at a low level (it's in my home office) and have the bass set at 8 and the treble at 10. There are 11 settings for each. I also have my speaker connected to my PC and use Equalizer APO/Peace GUI on Windows to adjust sound. I find that the higher treble gives the speaker a very nice airyness that it doesn't have at lower settings and if you set the bass too high it can begin to distort, even at low volumes.
For me it works best Bass 6 and Treble 8, around mid to high volume. Also depends on the music you listen to and other eq's etc. Cheers!
