Product details

Always have the most thunderous portable sound with you. Middleton is a quad speaker that ensures you can fully immerse yourself in your music anytime, anywhere. Control the playback or adjust the bass and treble control via the button directly on the speaker or use the app. The Dynamic Loudness function integrated into the Bluetooth speaker adjusts the tonal balance of the sound for brilliant sound at all times. Middleton utilises True Stereophonic, a unique multi-directional sound solution from Marshall that gives you stereo sound like you've never heard before. Experience first-class spatial and binaural sound that completely surrounds you and enjoy absolute 360° sound that is optimal from every angle.

Thanks to its iconic yet robust design, Middleton looks perfect on your shelf, yet is ideal for any muddy festival weekend. It is dustproof and water resistant to IP67, meaning it can withstand a little rain and dirt. The speaker's robust design is completely PVC-free and is made from 55% recycled plastic. With Middleton, you can dive straight into your music: Just pair it and you can enjoy over 20 hours of portable playtime on a single charge. It only takes 4.5 hours to fully recharge. Just leave your music playing on your mobile when your battery gets low and recharge it with the Middleton's built-in power bank function. Connect it to other Middleton speakers via stack mode for even more comprehensive sound. Whether alone or together with other speakers: Middleton offers you room-filling, colossal sound.
