Willen II Bluetooth Portable Speaker - Cream

Great little speaker. Sound wise at this size you’re not gonna find much better. It sounds pretty full with good detail. Battery Life Is good. You could strap it on to most things even a bicycle. Of course it looks good. You could take phone calls. A clear battery meter. It’s also very Durable. Keep the size in perspective . This is a speaker you can fit in cargo pants . If you want more bass and wider range and power you have to size up. Get it on sale. It’s a keeper.

I've owned and loved my Marshall Kilburn for years, and if you can accommodate a five pound speaker just as easily as a half pound speaker in your apartment, you owe it to yourself to get the Kilburn, which I often use instead of my pair of five foot tall Tannoys. But I'm reviewing the Willen. The Willen is tiny, both in size and in weight. Like the larger Marshall line, setup is easy--it can function without an app, and if you decide to use the app, it doesn't require an email address. (Unlike the required software and required account creation you'd have with a Sonos speaker, which wouldn't even sound nearly as good). Do be sure to turn off your phone's settings to boost sound or add other equalizer settings -- the Marshall app does a much better job with this. Mine sounded terrible until I found the setting to turn off my phone's automatic Dolby boost. As far as sound quality, I find myself using it in places where I would normally use my phone's speaker. Watching a movie on a laptop, taking it into the shower for listening to music there, as a white noise machine, etc. As with all tiny speakers, it will not fill a room, at least if you want to play something with challenging bass. I usually listen to the band Garbage to get an instant read on what a speaker can and can't do, and it wasn't able to boom through bass thumps of Push It while playing it loudly for a room, but it was perfectly enjoyable listening to the same song on a more quiet, speaker by the bed scale. The Willen is nice for enjoying good music alone, or as an easy source of background music at dinner. To fill a room, or zone out listening to your favorite album, you'd need the Kilburn. The Willen can't beat physics, but the sound seems as good as you could get for the size. I'm not an expert on audio quality, and it's hard to describe in text, but I find the more common brands of mini speaker (Bose/Sonos/etc.) to simply be annoying to listen to, and merely tolerable in bigger sizes. But again, the Kilburn really really hits a sweet spot for size in terms of how much you need for the vast majority of listening contexts, so if you actually want your music to be the life of the impromptu party without investing in something too big for an apartment, get the Kilburn. I view the Willen as a literally pocket sized thing I can easily toss in a bag or take in the shower. If you're a music aficionado and want the best, you're far better off buying used versions of the real earth breakers (Maraantz receiver, Tannoy or Martin Logan speakers, etc.) than you would buying brand new versions of the popular brands that can't come close to the boom boom of a high fidelity system. If you move a lot, a portable Marshall is a great alternative that will do the important thing, which is make it enjoyable to listen to complex music.

I bought this for my wife. She absolutely loves it. Was looking for a small speaker she could use in the shower or take with her. This is probably my 15th Marshall speaker to buy. I run a small construction company and bought a speaker for everyone on my crew. Often we use the emberton, but that was a bit larger than I was looking for with this one. Amazing sound quality. Beautiful build quality. Super simple to connect and use. Great battery life. A+ in my book!

I’ve been using the Marshall Willen II for a few weeks, and I’m really happy with it. The design is classic Marshall — sturdy, stylish, and rugged. I love that it’s IP67 waterproof and dustproof, so I don’t have to worry about taking it to the beach or using it outdoors in the rain. The sound is surprisingly clear for such a small speaker, with crisp mids and decent bass. It’s not going to shake the whole neighborhood, but for personal listening or small gatherings, it’s perfect. The battery life is solid — I can go most of the day without recharging. The strap is handy for attaching it to my backpack or bike, and the controls are easy to use. My only minor complaint is that the bass could be a bit punchier, and it’s a mono speaker, so you don’t get true stereo separation. Overall, this is a well-built, portable speaker that looks and sounds great. Perfect for anyone who wants a Marshall speaker on the go!

Excellent sound with the default settings. Battery life is good and matches product description.

As great as reported.

Awesome sound, the best of the ones I have, Bose, Tribit etc.

I also own the Emberton II and use it as a desk speaker The Willen II is lighter, but still packs the punch and fills the room like all other Marshall speakers I use the Willen as my travel speaker and when roaming the house

Mejor imposible, calidad de sonido, duración de la bateria, un tamaño ideal para oficina, la volveria a comprar sin duda.

Marshall Major III kulaklığım var. Çok sevdiğim için ihtiyacım olmamasına rağmen Willen II hoparlörünü indirimde görünce aldım. "İhtiyacım yoktu" diyorum ama aldıktan sonra fikrimi tamamen değiştirdi. Benim tam olarak Willen II'ye ihtiyacım varmış. Bir üst modelini de alabilirdim ama boyutuyla Willen daha taşınabilir. Premium bir görünümü var. Malzemesi çok kaliteli duruyor. Ancak kulaklık az kullanılmasına rağmen benzer materyalli pedleri durup dururken soyulmuştu. Bu yüzden Willen II'de de bu endişeye sahibim. Umarım sorun yaşamam. Odanın neresinde olursa olsun yanımdaymış gibi. Ses kalitesi çok temiz, su gibi berrak. Şarjı için 17 saat yazıyor. İlk kullanımda epey kullandım. 17 saat olmasa da 13-14 saat kullanmışımdır. Çok hızlı şarj oluyor. Üzerinde şarj göstergesi var. Dahili mikrofonuna ihtiyaç duymadım, duyacağımı zannetmiyorum. Askı aparatı tek tarafından açılıyor zannettim. Sanırım açılmıyor. Biraz sert gözüktüğü için zorlamaya çekindim. O yüzden emin değilim. iPhone ve dizüstü bilgisayarım ile çok hızlı bir şekilde eşleşti. Marshall'ın uygulamasıyla entegre çalışıyor.

Great sound from a small speaker. Great to pack in a suitcase.

Nice

Lovely sound for the size of the speaker. Rich sound with great bass
