Marshall’s new Middleton II Bluetooth speaker lasts 30 hours between charges

Marshall has released the Middleton II, a compact Bluetooth speaker that replaces the first-generation Middleton from 2023. The new speaker promises to deliver room-filling 360-degree sound despite its small size. It features two 30-watt woofers and two 10-watt tweeters, which are positioned to provide clear sound from any angle. The Middleton II has a battery life of over 30 hours, an improvement from its predecessor's 20 hours. A 20-minute charge can revive the speaker and it can also be used as a power bank to charge phones. The speaker has a multi-directional control knob for play/pause, song selection, call answering, and volume control. It also features a built-in microphone for hands-free calls. The Middleton II has an IP67 rating, making it dust and water resistant. It is available for purchase now at a price of $330. The speaker's compact size and features make it ideal for trips and outdoor use. Overall, the Middleton II promises to deliver improved sound quality and performance compared to its predecessor.
