Marshall 1002634 Kilburn II Portable Bluetooth Speaker

The Marshall Kilburn II carries forward the brand's heritage of bold, amp-inspired design into a portable Bluetooth speaker that sounds as striking as it looks. Inside the textured cabinet sit a dedicated woofer and tweeters configured for stereo output, producing a soundstage that's surprisingly wide and detailed for a speaker of this size. The analogue control knobs on the top panel—volume, bass, and treble—are a signature Marshall touch, giving you tactile, real-time control over the EQ without needing to navigate a companion app. A bass boost feature adds extra low-end punch when the moment calls for it.

Battery life is a standout feature, with over 20 hours of wireless playback from a single 2.5-hour charge. Bluetooth connectivity covers a 10-meter range, and Multi Host Functionality means the speaker can remember multiple paired devices and switch between them seamlessly—useful when friends want to take turns DJing. The included double-ended coil cord with 3.5mm plugs provides a wired backup for non-Bluetooth sources. At 5.5 pounds and measuring 12.5 x 8.7 x 10.2 inches, the Kilburn II is portable in the sense that it has a carry strap and runs on battery, but its weight positions it more as a speaker you bring somewhere and set down rather than one you clip to a backpack. Its water resistance offers peace of mind against light moisture, making it suitable for patios and picnics where conditions are controlled.
