I really like your speaker reviews because you not only cover all the speaker features (pros and cons), but you also provide sound comparisons that helped me decide for myself which sound qualities I most enjoyed! I originally found your Marshall Willen review on Amazon, then decided to look for your other portable speaker reviews. After listening, I decided on the Emberton II rather than the Willen. Thanks for your reviews!
Thank you! Now we wait for your review of the Willen.
i look at his ears, and i know this man is serious about music and those ears cant be wrong
Easy to talk when we can't see your beautiful face 😊
Thanks for this review! I have the original Emberton but the charging port kind of broke so I was thinking of getting the second one but I don't really need the equalizer (and prefer not to have an app for it). The second one looks awesome but I think the first one is still good too. Thanks again for sharing the comparison!
I found the video very helpful in deciding which one to go with
Caught a few of your videos today. I like green too :D Good sub. Keep it up
Thank you Danny!!!! You are the best!! Thi is the best speaker bluetooth revew
really great review..thank you. 👌👌👌
So now with the new arrival of the Marshall Middleton, I am looking forward to seeing the reviews on Marshall's new speaker.
Nice video. Appreciate it.
Nice little "Flossy"-allusions ;) .... and very informative video. Thanks a lot!
Walmart released a speaker resembling the emberton called the Onn WiFi medium speaker with airplay2 and Bluetooth. There’s actually 3 sizes small, medium, and large. They look so much like Marshall speakers but all with WiFi ,ap2, and BT.
These are the right songs for speaker reviews,
not trash songs like hip hop and r&b EDM and so on.
(Smart review) 👍👍👍
I had really bed problem with my emberton 1. Shutting down to early and being a massive pain to connect to. My laptop out-competed my iPhone 11 and 12. Never had that problem with my JBL charge 4. Sound and size was great though. Tempted to try the emberton 2 as I hope the app would help the Bluetooth issues?
Great review 😊
Can you review the Marshall Willen 😇
Beautiful song in the test ❤
God bless you for choosing Roxette
Can we pair ( stack mode ) New Embertion II with Marshall welly ? Curious to know output result when both play together
great video
The little dancing kills me 👐🏿 👍🏿 😂
Sir which 1 has a overall better sound quality t flex or t emberton?pls.pls reply
Beautiful sounds quality i love Marshall
A very good content
You're the reason I bought Emberton I. Loving it. Question, I've been think thinking to get Yamaha HS8/HS7. Idk who to ask, how HS series sound different from Emberton? Apart from their power or size or portability, I just love how Emberton sound. But afraid if they sound differently.
Uhm I’m not sure how u could compare a little Bluetooth speaker with studio monitors. The hs8 sound really good but the Yamaha will have a much flatter eq, which is great for mixing music. I’d expect it to be clearer than the emberton but perhaps not as warm.
Thanks! Already have 3 Embertons and was wondering if this would sound much better, worth upgrading. Not gonna now! Don’t care about stacking and 20 hours is already long enough! Cheers!
If by any chance you want to sell one of your previous one's then hook me up bro🙏🏻
@@bhartiyamemesena546 Both my daughters use one and are really happy with them… so don’t think they go on sale soon… sorry bro. Maybe they will be in a sale or discount soon because of the new one!
Wonder if they gave up fast charging for higher battery specific energy.
I liked the first gen sound better. Better separation and also immediacy in comparison with the second gen which sounds its best in the Marshall mode.
beautiful, but need the aux in/out.
I love my Emberton!
It seems to be more like Emberton 1 and the Emberton 1.2 instead of Emberton 2.
I have a eq in my android settings and the ability to Bluetooth multiple devices simultaneously,,, what are the added features?!?
i love my bose soundlink flex ❤
I have 2 stanmores and an emberton. They all sound amazing but the sound that comes out of the little emberton is freaking amazing. I carry it everywhere. I even use it in my car. The battery life is super long. I want a Woburn really bad.
Currys do the Woburn 2 I've got one the sound quality and the bass is a amazing and it's that good as well I keep my bass off at all times don't really need it on and it's still got alot of bass with it off and it's very powerful to I can't turn the volume all the way up too loud and no distortion either at full volume but very very loud to so just be ready I love mine I would never get rid of it I'm set for life with my Woburn 2 speaker perfect
@@leecollier485 I’m happy to hear you say the Woburn 2 is plenty loud. I’ve seen a couple reviews that say the Woburn 2 wasn’t as loud as the Woburn 1. I want something to blow me out of the room! I can’t wait to get one.
The woburn 2 is defintely more quiet than the woburn 1. But the woburn 1 can also blow out the speaker because it doesn't auto limit.
Woburn ii is by far, the best speaker I've ever owned
These speakers in my opinion have very poor front soundstage. They have their 360 degree music throw trick if that’s something you need but for front listening they are lacking. However at least this new one has access to the Marshall app which appears to allow you to turn off the stupid auto off feature. I favour the Sony SRS-XB33 over this Emberton.
Thanks for the review. Can you please advise if:
1) the turn-on sound can be disabled in the app? (I read that you can do this in the three dots menu of the device)
2) can the automatic turn-off time be changed in the app?
I just got the I version few days ago and though I love the sound, these two issues bother me so much I'm thinking of returning the device. I'd happily buy the II version if the app can help fix these things. Thanks.
Checking... EDIT: ok checked the Marshall Bluetooth app and there is no feature that I can find that allows you to either disable the turn-on sound (maybe apple is different since I have android). There is no auto-turn off timer adjustment either. So for now I'd say no to both. This would be awesome for Marshall to consider adding though since this speaker CAN be updated if they'd program that in.
Thank you for checking, I was putting all my hopes in the app :) Like you said, they might add this later. I hope :)
Also review the Marshall willen as well
I can afford 2 willens
que voltaje soporta el cargador?
Does it fit in a pocket of cycling jersey??
I was wondering which one should I buy, but I found both at the same price, so I choose the Emberton II.
Yeah its got more features and is way better on battery life
Heya! I received mine yesterday, it really is surprisingly loud! Since you have both the Emberton and Emberton II, do you know if the physical specs are identical? The only thing missing on these speakers IMO is a strap or attachment point. I've seen a few aftermarket cases/sleeves that have such attachment, but they're marketed for the Emberton I and not the II. If they're identically sized, then theoretically they'd work for the II. Thanks!
yeah they are the exact same size. I'm certain they are from the same production line.
@@DannyPops so you could theoretically swap the sleeves and it'd be same same eh?
@@JauLingChou too many hidden variables to know for sure
@@DannyPops I've asked Marshall already, they tested it and say its fine. Nothing hidden or variable!
Hey dude, I bought a klipsche speaker because of your review but if you could tell me what kind of chair is that in the video ?
Hey Hulon! Thanks so much for the question: www.masayacompany.com/collections/mid-century-modern-danish-lounge-chairs If they ask you where you heard of it, be sure to mention me. I'm not affiliated with them, but yeah I love the chair too.
Hey Danny,
Been planning to buy a Marshall speaker for a while now but I'm confused between Acton 2 and Emberton. Can you suggest which is better?
BTW love from India!!!
acton 2 works only while connected to power but it’s better overall
I bought Marshall emberton 2 but this speaker is giving me thought time it doesn't play under medium or high volume and sometimes it get crashed and turn off
Review the kilburn 2 please
Bro, what are the price differences?
emberton 1 can do stack mode?
Does it still make that awful sound at power on/off? Or does it finally let's you disable it?
Thanks for your video, my concern when I got the emberton I was that when I’m playing very soft tracks (let’s say classic music while I read on the lowest volume possible) the speaker makes a little noise like a bzzzzz that drives me nuts, does the version II do the same? It’s very low bzzz but still annoying do all version 1 make it? Thank you!
That would be the marshall sound. I'd recommend a bose flex, b&o a1, and maybe the jbl flip 6 for you
@@DannyPops - Is this buzzing a common problem on the Embertons? I don't notice it on the Emberton 1.
Is really good sound
Emberton II vs Soundlink Flex?
Been hearing issues about the battery. Anyone experienced battery issues?
Does this pair with iPhone xr
In Sweden, you can get the old Emberton for 65-70 dollars right now. I have one already but would like to have one more downstairs.. What to do? I really like the pairing possibility of the emberton IIs.
Meanwhile they are still 170€ here lol
In Serbia it's 180€... Damn, like we are richer than you.
nice! how many hours on Full volume all the way for Emberton 2? cheers :)
I have not sat there and played it for 30 hours yet!
Comparison between this and Bose flex
Is it worth to wait a month for emberton 2 back in stock? Or I can purchase the 1? Seems like not a big difference between them. Thanks for your video, they really helpful.
I would wait if you like the EQ adjustment and the ludicrously long battery life
@@DannyPops Thank you!
I'd switch to the new II version only depending on the pairing mode. I use my Emberton mainly for the PC (sound from monitor is crap). So, would you test the pairing of two Emberton IIs, left and right, in vertical mode, as if "someone" asked you to emulate a work/play PC desk environment? :-)
i honestly would just get this instead: amzn.to/3MoOAC8 those are my personal speakers for my PC and they are the best sounding i've had for 7 years!
@@DannyPops
Maybe that sounds better, but I also use the Emberton for my laptop, it looks good and is easy for on the go.
When Iam home I can use my High-End stuff, sounds crazy good, but I dont always want to turn on my whole High-End equipment just for to hear something on the background, so Emberton for me the perfect small speaker.
Is there a difference to the sound between emberton 1 and emberton 2 or is it just an upgrade to the battery life and other features? I wanted to know if the bass and volume has increased compared to emberton 1, I see a few reviews saying that the emberton 1 lacks a little in base and max volume.
Good question, so it's really the same at default setting. The EQ mode has a push mode that's boosts the bass and Highs a bit, but not a significant difference. The emberton is not super bass heavy due to its size.
@@DannyPops thanks for clarifying, I think I would go with the original emberton...here in india its like a 65 usd price difference right now, I think I can skip the extra features
@@sauravgogoi1550 emberton 2 available in India? Btw which one do you recommend flip 6 or emberton ??
@@saurabhsingh4194 not yet, but it looks like it is about to launch at 19k...I prefer the emberton over flip 6 since from the reviews I have seen it does not seem to have clarity that emberton has and I am not looking for a bass heavy party speaker.
@@sauravgogoi1550 emberton 1 is selling for 13k currently
Nice video Danny. P.s. wich spyderco you're using?
Good eye man! Sypderco Watu... I have an entire collection of spydercos :)
@@DannyPops it will be interesting if you also make some videos of your knifes
@@ruleman1234 i would definitely love to! Just felt like people might think i was weird for collecting them.
does jbl charge 5 has more bass than emberton 2?
Maybe you can help me choose a bluetooth speaker for classical music. My budget is about 250€ max, so I probably need to get a portable type. I won't be using it outdoors, so water resistance and shock proof are not of high importance. The sound is what counts: nice bass, but does not need to make the house trembe: clear mid and high ranges. I especially listen to Renaissance polyphonic music and some symphonic pieces. For polyphony, I need a speaker that delivers very clear, crisp vocals. Stereo would be nice.
There are so many speakers available now, so what do you suggest?
Have you considered the B&O A1? This is the speaker in your price range with super clear treble: th-cam.com/video/aFV5Sv7ndK0/w-d-xo.html
@Keith Sennette that was the A1 gen 1 apparently. The 2nd Gen battery lasts considerably longer at the expense of watts I believe.
@@DannyPops Thanks
What is your favorite portable speaker? Price range up to $400
Emberton II is not IPX67. The measurement is IP67. The X after the IP just means that there's no measured value for dust resistance. So the 6 replaces the X in the Emberton II's measurements
slip of the tongue, last year there were a lot of X rated models.
Marshall emberton 2 o Sony Xg 300. The price its very close 😂 in my country and support sony yes. Marshall sound detailed and punchy bass. Sony sound very full and detail too. Maybe a little equalizer in the bass it's fine. I listen rock/metal/pop
💯💯
Emberton 1 is good
it must have been love... but it is over now
I’m so freaking mad I bought the ember ton 1 like last month I shoulda just waited for the 2 to come out 😢
Me too just 3days ago 😅
That’s why you shouldn’t buy technology when it’s on sale. They only put stuff like that on sale when a new one is coming out. Everyone is marking down these speakers.
How does it compare to other competition like JBL Flip 6 or Tribit Maxsound Plus(Upgraded) or Anker Soundcore Boost(Upgraded)
All of them will sound worse when compared to the new Earfun Uboom L so just weight a bit...
@@lukabosnjak3829 maybe cause I've never heard this new Uboom L compared to other competition ... I only saw them at Oluv's Patreon but I'm not a subscriber ... So my expectations are also High about this new release from Earfun as it was also tuned by Oluv
@@legendaryblood1937 Oluv just dropped a new demo and really sounds amazing...
@@lukabosnjak3829 where?
@@lukabosnjak3829 I'm interested haha
Should I consider the sound link flex or the Marshall 2
I have never tried the streio mode in Bose
So I was going to buy 2 soundlink flex but after Marshall 2 came out I was confused
Do you think I should buy Emberton 2?
They are both great speakers and it'll come down to style I think. The flex has a microphone and it's maybe a little more bass
THANK YOU
I appreciate the response ❤
Can you compare this to the Bose Flex?
th-cam.com/video/rBFQ2lu7Cjw/w-d-xo.html Since they are so similar in sound to the original emberton, this may help.
Can,t understand why it doesn,t come with a carring strap
The new dust resistance feature will always make the sound a bit muffled.
One suggestion, don’t compare fresh out of the box speakers as it takes time for the burn in
appreciate the good thought! I'm not really one to dive too deep into if burn in is real or not, but the original Emberton here would definitely be burned in at this point, so if that's any consideration for comparing it to the new one :)
You won't notice any burn in with these cheap drivers, maby Vifa Oslo would get slightly more bass with time because they used really stiff drivers...
That's true, I've been experiencing the same with Emberton 2. It was out right flat when I got it 3 months ago. Now however the bass is evident and just as required
Hey everyboooooooody!
Hey Danny, how do you play copyright songs without being yanked?
You can't. I buy a license to all the music I play. That's why most of it is usually not very good. For this particular video I paid a lot more for this classic.
Emberton II or Sony srs xb100???
Sony just came out with the Ult field 1 which I'm working on a review for.
think you know a lot about bluetooth speakers. But as I often only listen to classical music at home with stereo system, your comment is not that helpful. The question of whether such a small Bluetooth speaker is at all suitable in comparison with the Streo system at home or is it just a toy for those who have no idea about music?
I think my jbl charge 5 sound better. Plus they can charge your phone. Would you consider a comparison video?
hey! Thanks for the query. I've compared the emberton to the JBL Charge 5 here: th-cam.com/video/xbr4D0YF1gk/w-d-xo.html it sounds exactly like the emberton II
@@DannyPops thank you very much.
I have both. Emberton is better. JBL is just “loud” but overall sound quality is just meh, compared to Emberton.
@@emmajewelry I thought the emberton were just ok sounding. Even the bose sounded better.
@@keithsr. if you’re after bass, go for charge 5. If you’re looking for a balanced highs and mids, clearer sound, go for emberton.
i wanna buy a mug
Standby mode still？
This new one has access to the app which if you look at the stills in the App Store it looks like you can turn off the stupid standby feature.
The original emberton was unusable for me as it turned itself off after 5-10min s of no audio being played. Does the emberton 2 still do this too?
It probably does... I'll add this to the list of things to look at.
@@DannyPops Hey Danny I watched your latest video on the ME2 but you didn't mention it. Did you by any chance get to test this? There's a real huge gap in the market for rich clean minimalistic Bluetooth PC audio. Hence why people like me are looking at speakers like this to see if they can fill the void.
Doesn’t have aux right?
Correct no aux input. Only USB C
@@DannyPops well that’s a bummer, would’ve loved listening music in lossless.
Not sure if it’s only me but there’s some awkwardness in you that’s kinda addicting. Haha!
And yeah. That’s a complement. 🤭
Except battery life & form factor , Emberton II is trash to me(compare with Bose Flex or JBL Flip6)
watch out for fake ones guys! got one yesterday!, get my money back ofc but hope the source gets punished. Anyhow, if it looks off... you can find comparisons online to check whether you have an authentic one of fake. Yeah, also the sounds is pretty damn different and worse ofc.
where did you get a fake one from?
But it's not as loud as my Marshall 100 watt stack 🤣
seems like all Marshall speakers sound like an old radio. In my opinion it's overpriced and sound quality of JBL is better. More bass and clear. Marshall on the other hand is more vintage, very soft, and reminds me old speakers from 1990. What do you think?
I have watched several reviews of the JBL Flip 6 and JBL Charge 5 on TH-cam, and the consistent flaw I have heard with these speakers is that the treble sounds harsh on both of these JBL speakers. I like the bass on the JBL's I just can't get past how poor the highs sound. Everyone has a different take on what sounds good, I get it.
Somehow I think both sound bad, like hollow little boxes...
That was torture.
Don't buy this it will dissappoint buyer. Buy instead Tribit Stormbox which is same quality but cheaper than this.
You realize the stormbox is a line of speakers… which one would you recommend specifically.
Sorry but the mid's are terrible. Roxette's voice sounds like recorded through a tin can. Terrible....
It was pretty difficult for all the small speakers
@@DannyPops
Yes, you shouldn't have included the original song in mp3 quality😉😁
Both sounded trash to me
get out
