Marshall - Middleton

The Marshall Middleton line has Aux in and low latency. It’s what I hook my OP-XY up to when I travel.

Dont sleep on that middleton. I got 2 of them to stereo and it sounded rich but compare to its older siblings like tufton, acton or stanmore the middleton is a little digitally processed but besides that since yiu got the money for xtreme then I suggest you get the killburns 2/3.0 and it sounds better than middleton and louder for its size.

I wouldn't expect too much from it if I were you. You'll get a real performance boost if you opt for a larger speaker, such as the Marshall Middleton for example.

I have the Bose soundlink max and had the Middleton, the Bose sounds a lot cleaner and I think looks more modern and elegant. Don’t listen to those that say what about X speaker or X speaker sounds better than you find out that X speaker is better because it’s just gigantic (jbl boombox or Union X).

I also have a Marshall Middleton (which appears to be $209 on Amazon). It has pretty good sound. The bass rolls off pretty substantially at a certain point. I would still pick the Move 2 over it though. That being said, if you’re really looking to stay in your lower budget, the Middleton is a good choice.

I'd go with the Sony ULT 7 for a large speaker, and for a smaller speaker that also produces all frequencies, I'd choose the Marshall Middleton, because of the stereo separation which is superb in my opinion.

I have the Middleton by Marshall and that thing is amazing! It's loud has good base. The only thing I hate is the control. But you can control it through your phone.

From the RTINGS data, the major differences are: \- The Bose sounds better at higher volumes(less compression) and has 2x the battery life. \- The Marshall has much better soundstage The Bose also has slightly more accurate frequency response, but it's close. Soundstage and appearance/branding are really the only selling points of the Marshall. If those aren't important to you, you'd probably be better off with almost any other speaker in the price range. You could also get a UE EpicBoom which gives you the best of both worlds. For me, I'm happy to trade some volume and battery life for improved soundstage, so I have a Marshall(found a good deal locally).

Got the Middleton for my buddy who loves his music.....had a little play with it before gifting it to him and was blown away with the sound, tried all kinds of music ranging from metal, hip hop, electronic and the bass was impressive given the size of the speaker! No experience with the Bose but the marshall blew me away. I usually listen to music through big kef floor standing speakers and couldn't believe the clarity and volume from it 🤘

Hi all, so I played with a friend's mixstream pro and loved it, I just needed someone to show me the ropes, did hours of research and pretty sure I'm getting the FLX4. I'm looking at speakers now, there are very few portable speakers with AUX (UGHGGG) # For context playing little house parties, and outdoor events like camping with friends I currently have a UE boom 2 that has an aux but the sound quality is very meh, it's muddy # I'm looking at * Marshall Middleton (seems to have very little latency) * Bose Soundlink Revolve * Audio TEchnica AT-SP65XBT these 2 are in completely different price brackets, they are around the same size, weight though - and that's pretty much the max weight I'm willing to go. 4-5lbs is much heavier than I usually have for my speakers as I go to festivals where we gotta carry a bunch of gear to and from. Wanted to get a JBL to be on my friend's ecosystem to pair but it seems the XTreme would be the only one with AUX but Marshall Middleton may be better then? has bass/treble EQ too I rather something that I can play with at home that sounds good, at small parties too I know there is the Minirig that has zero latency but then you gotta buy a few to make examples a 2.1, I don't want to deal with all that. This is already a few more items I need to have on FLX4 VS a standalone Mixstream Pro (though for parties I'd need an external speaker anyway) so I really want something simple that's pretty darn good and easy to transport and won't cost more. Any advice? I couldn't see anything comparing speakers with that Audio Technica for example thanks!! UPDATE: bought the Marshall Middleon, I'm in love it's truly amazing. Sound is nice, missing a little bit of mids but honestly , very good. Very clear. Well designed, though I'm iffy about the no cover USB-C and aux in the back.

please come back to report! For the Marshall Middleton, it says the latency is like 30ms on bluetooth so I imagine for wired it will be even less [https://www.rtings.com/speaker/tests/connectivity/bluetooth#test\_4604](https://www.rtings.com/speaker/tests/connectivity/bluetooth#test_4604)

Still Middleton. At my sisters she had a big speaker carry on style with an aux jack, from a Costco, I used that when I was over
