Michael Hemsworth — June 9, 2026 — Tech
The Marshall Stockwell III speaker is an upcoming audio accessory engineered by the brand with a premium music experience in mind that also prioritizes a repairable design. The speaker features a design that will call to mind the brand's signature amps, but boasts a decidedly more compact design and a handle to accommodate being carried between locations. The speaker is rated to pump out 360-degree audio to work well regardless of the room setup and has an IP55 rating to ensure durability.
The Marshall Stockwell III speaker is rated to deliver up to 40-hours of use per charge and will feature a user-replaceable battery to support consumer repairability. The speaker will debut in the UK, Europe and the US starting in August.
