Marshall Stanmore - ranked #22 of 28 Medium Size Powered Desktop Speakers · Editor's rating 3.5/5

#22 Marshall Stanmore: $399.99 each Discontinued Estimated eBay

Newer model: the Marshall Stanmore IV, ranked higher, estimated 3.8/5, released Jul 2026. See every Marshall home speakers generation.

Pros: Same 5.25 inch woofer, twin tweeter, 80W layout as the Marshall Stanmore II, so it plays loud and full for a room. Physical bass and treble knobs. aptX Bluetooth plus 3.5mm, RCA and optical inputs for a TV or turntable preamp. Classic amp styling.

Cons: Midrange sounds a little boxy and recessed, with less detail than the price suggests. Only one woofer, so stereo separation is limited. No app, multiroom or speaker pairing. Heavy at about 5.1 kg and mains powered only. Discontinued; the Marshall Stanmore II replaced it.
