About this deal

It leaves out everything else completely. Especially what we care the most about when it comes to power: Being able to play at high volumes without any loss of sound quality. Because, other parameters such as the age/materials of the building, furniture/windows in place also have an impact on room acoustics. The source code under Pierre Aubert's work is licensed under GPL (General public license). He didn't perform any of the measurements himself, and instead he compiled all of them into one place, so that makes sense. Being louder, The Kilburn II will provide a more saturated experienced however the Acton II is capable of this as well. It's hard to argue with the Marshall Acton's gorgeous styling and equally attractive sound quality, and the detail in the brass knobs and brushed gold-metallic panel gives the Acton enviable wow factor. The myriad connectivity options are also impressive, in particular the choice to play music through either the Marshall Multi-Room hub app, or from a phone through Spotify or the native music apps on Apple and Android devices.

If you don't need portability, then get the Acton since it produces noticeably higher quality sounds. Excerpt of the chat with the Customer Rep Pam: They all differ in what they offer, so I am not able to give a blanket statement, unfortunately. The app works well too. It has a nice simple layout, while offering enough options to make it useful. For those that like to play with EQ levels, this is a must-have. But for those less knowledgeable about what they’re doing, the presets are really helpful too. On top of the speaker there are control knobs for volume, bass and treble – all of which light up indicator bars to show what level they’re at. These are flanked by chunky metal buttons to play and pause, or switch between Bluetooth and auxiliary line-in. On the far end of that top bar you’ll find the power switch and the 3.5mm aux port. At this point, I thought that if there was a tool that combined both the Spinorama with the room acoustics data, it'd be extremely useful.Granted, some people will want a lot more in the way of features for this price, but I personally didn’t mind because it means Marshall has put every effort into make this speaker sound as good as it possibly can instead of delivering a long list of unnecessary extras. Marshall Acton III review: also consider It basically compresses the digital audio and then decompresses it upon arriving the source. In the end, it minimizes the quality loss. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AptX The Marshall Stanmore 2 is simply amazing for low-end and if you play a bass guitar in very low notes i.e under 80 Hz then you will be amazed at how well the speaker is able to handle those notes. The woofer works hard when it comes to mids and highs. This speaker lets you enjoy clean and precise audio even at high audio levels. It has a bass reflex system which comes with a port that helps in increasing the efficiency even at low frequencies so that you enjoy the stellar sound at all times. It is equipped with advanced components such as two 15 watt class D Amplifiers that powers its tweeters and a 50 watt class D amplifier that drives its mighty subwoofer. Versatility is always good, but there are perhaps too many choices when it comes to connecting to the Marshall Acton. While its Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity can be used by almost any mobile device, Apple products can connect over AirPlay whether they're using the Acton as a single speaker or networked to other speakers in Marshall's multi-room collection.

Fortunately, now we have the Spinorama data for a bunch of quite popular speakers. Pierre Aubert put all this untidy data together and put it into https://www.spinorama.org/. This is a stunning source. Pretty valuable stuff from him right there. The Marshall Stanmore 2 can also be used with two options for connectivity. It also has a Bluetooth version 5.0 and aptX technology that gives a wireless sound range of upto 30 feets(10 metres). The connectivity is the same for both the speakers.

Sony SRS-XB100 review

In the free app, you can choose between EQ presets (but you already have bass and treble knobs on the speaker itself), change the intensity of the LEDs, put the speaker in standby mode, or control your music. Performance If you're going to be listening to your speakers in an apartment flat without significant sound proofing, it might be even more important than the loudness.
