The Marshall Acton III Hendrix Edition is a limited-edition version of the most compact speaker in Marshall's third-generation home range, made to mark 60 years of Marshall and Jimi Hendrix. The cabinet is coated in the crushed velvet Hendrix loved, the black grille carries a purple psychedelic print, and an all-seeing eye badge sits on the side. The top panel is silver, and the speaker plays sounds taken from Hendrix recordings when you switch it on and off. It is 260 mm wide, weighs 2.85 kg and runs from the mains.
Inside, a 30W amplifier drives the woofer and two 15W amplifiers drive tweeters that point outwards through updated waveguides, so the stereo sound spreads wider than on the Acton II. The bass-reflex cabinet covers 45 Hz to 20 kHz and reaches 95 dB at 1 m. Dynamic Loudness adjusts the tonal balance as you change the volume. Bluetooth 5.2 reaches up to 10 m, two phones can stay connected at once, and the 3.5 mm AUX input takes a laptop, TV or music player.
There is no battery, so the speaker stays plugged in, and it has no microphone or Wi-Fi, and no RCA or HDMI input. It cannot be paired with a second speaker in the app. The Marshall Bluetooth app for Android and iOS adds EQ, a placement setting and software updates, though some owners find it limited.
Plug the mains lead into the back of the speaker and into a wall socket, then flip the power switch on the top panel. Press the Source button to select Bluetooth, then push and hold it until the Bluetooth light pulses, and pick ACTON III in your phone's Bluetooth list. The Marshall Bluetooth app is optional and adds EQ, placement correction and software updates.
Marshall Acton III Hendrix Edition speaker, mains lead, user manual and legal and safety information. A 3.5 mm audio cable is not included.
