I like that this review is straight to the point and not a 18 minutes art show!
Wow, a sound review that actually dives into sound quality right away. Awesome review and deserves more views
I love the brown color 😍 been waiting for this review to drop !!! Thank u Dannyyyy
Your reviews are the best out there! I love your videos and commentary!
The Acton 3 looks and sounds great. I stayed to the end and subscribed. Love your channel.
I have the first generation Acton and it is simply amazing! Thanks to your videos, I haven't bought the 2nd generation speaker. And thanks again that now I can easily buy the 3rd generation 😁 Great videos and best of luck on UA-cam!
Nice and easy to follow. Love your work. I just got the acton 3 today.
After watching your video for like 100th time, I got the Acton 3 yesterday and really happy with it. Thanks Danny 👍👍👍
Hey Danny, you reviews are so good. Thanks for this.
This is such a high quality video, well done!
Just bought an Acton 3 literally a few hours after watching this. LOVE IT
Thanks for a great review. Purchased the Acton 3 based on this review and some of your other ones. Needed to replace an old Bose speaker. It hooks up into our turntable and is a great bluetooth speaker. Thanks again!
Acton 3 sounds mighty impressive. Enjoyed your review - as always.
I purchased the Acton 3 today, excited to get it. I feel it is such a great style with equal sound capabilities! Plus the future proofing updates will be attractive as well with adding other Marshall speakers.
Thanks for the great review. Ready to get mine
I was set on the Middleton then I jumped up to the tufton now I’m nearly set on the Acton. Thank you for all your videos!
I purchased it last week. Oh Man… this is just awesome, great sound, great bass , louder than you expect.
I am in love with this one. Just can’t stop myself listening songs on this one….
Great video presentation you are the Marshall spokesperson your favorite these do look like home speakers the Emberton is more my speed. I’m glad to see new speakers entering the market place.
I got this brown color today. It’s a great speaker. Excellent sounds.
Been looking at the Acton 2 as I haven’t been able to find the original Acton but I will definitely be splurging on the Acton 3 now, thanks! 😁 (also hung around till the end haha)
Getting the Klipsch ONE II…🤔 today.
Just found your Chanel. Thanks for the reviews!
Sound quality and the tone are the most important things to me. I am looking to buy a speaker set for the home, but one that is not too large. So, not any of the Woburns, and the Tufton is too expensive for me. I am weighing up the prices and availability, and the sound quality between the Acton 3 and the JBL boombox 2, which has bluetooth 5.2 and is water resistant, and also has stereo, but isn't as rich in sound as the Marshalls. So far the JBL is way more available to me. .This is the review that got me interested in the Acton 3. Without this review I would never have considered any of the Marshall speakers. You have opened up another door, thanks for posting this excellent and honest, also straight forward review. Super helpful. Thanks
Waiting for my Acton 3. Can't wait to use it
Recently bought this and it sounds amazing!
Great review Danny! Ugh. I have too many speakers already.... But im coming for the Woburn. The acton is GREAT but I want the maximum.
The Acton 3 definitely for the win, it’s just sounds more richer and clarified than the other 2 in my opinion
I am now considering to purchase the acton 3. Thanks!
Thanks...great info in your review. I think it's the Acton 3 for me. 🤩
I got the Acton 3 after watching your video, actually you dissuaded me from buying Bose revolve plus and am i glad . The Acton 3 sound pretty frickin awesome!!!
Klipsch has always impressed me over the years. Great sound for the price
The acton 3 is incredible, got it yesterday from watching your reviews and others. I still can't believe it sounds this good. Also the analog look gives a great touch at home.
Does it has good volume and bass.
yes, real good@@anonymous-pe9ds
When u find the sweetspot for Acton 3 it sounds extremly well. I love everything with this speaker. Also got the brown
Thanks for the review, on my way to the website to buy the Acton lll 👍🏼😂
Heck yeaaaaaa
I purchased the Acton 3 and the Woburn 3 to try them out. I'm returning the Woburn 3. Nothing wrong with it, it's a beast! But I was more impressed by the Acton 3 considering its size and price.
Does Acton 3 automatically turn off or disconnect bluetooth if nothing is playing for a while? I
Is acton 3 wired?
@@KGF-24816 Yup! After 10 mins I think it automatically disconnects.
What about the bass? Is it good? Is Acton 3 pretty much better than emberton or is just a matter of sound power?
I bought an Acton III after checking your review and I couldn't be more happy with the purchase. I was initially eyeing a Stanmore iii but for my small studio it felt like an overkill. Acton fills up the place nicely around mid volumes and when I listened to stanmore and Acton at the store I couldn't hear a noticeable difference in the sound quality. I also tested Woburn III and it was a totally different beast. Would love to get it someday. Thanks for the quality reviews. Really appreciate it.
What color do you choose？😂
@@evanzhang9915 Black one
Personally sounded like the Acton 3 was better in project and wider soundstage. The Klipsch while I love the looks was a bit more hollow or quieter in loudness. The original Acton was good but not nearly as loud, that being said I would be content owning any single one of them but the Acton 3 would be my choice if I had disposable income
got acton 3 after watching this thanks alot great review
What settings (i.e. trebble / bass) do you find best for the type of music here that you listen to on the Acton 3? Thanks for the reviews, you sold me on the 3! Sounds so much better than just about anything!!! :)
thanks for the review. I was thinking of buying the middleton but as i wont be going out with the speaker, so I chose the acton 3 instead.
Nice video! Keep it up 👍
Stayed to the end. Nice video.
Commenting for better reach and I love your videos.
Grazie per aver condiviso questa esauriente recensione
Today I received the acton III and I am over the moon. Considering the size of the speaker its a beast
Great Job
really awesome speakers..
That was a great review and indeed the brown color looks amazing!..it wasn't in stock when I ordered my Acton 3. Hey you mentioned lossless and I think it would be great if you did a video on sound differences between bluetooth and wired methods. perhaps even introduce a digital to analog converter in the review to see how hi-fi lossless sounds with these speakers. Keep up the good work with these videos.👍
thanks for the ideas and thoughts! My last bluetooth video was the closest I've gotten to that but yeah I agree!
I wanted the brown too
@@DannyPops if you're gonna pick, should you pick this acton 3 or xtreme 3? Thanks
@@jorenhipolito8850 acton 3 for me
Comparison of kilburn 2 and acton 3 please
The speaker from Marshall that can fit into any retro TV shows like Stanger Things. Good for pc speaker or better to get bookshelf speakers instead?
Hey Danny, which one sounds better and clearer between klipsch one ii and acton iii? Pls let me know. Lots of love and support!
Awesome review, I want the brown color but its not available 🙁
So I have been using the Acton 3 for two weeks now, even though it's quite good I feel like the bass is a bit lacking. I'm considering upgrading to a Stanmore 3 for better bass. Was the bass considerably better with the Stanmore in your experience, is it worth getting?
Nice mic to check the sound 👍
Hi, your videos are really well made and I appreciate that you compare the new products to the original lineup.
In this video the waveform of the acton III looks pretty compressed and less dynamic than the original acton but your hearing impressions are pretty similar. How is that? Im thinking about buying the acton III but am also considering the original acton or stanmore. Main Use Cases would be vinyl via aux and bluetooth streaming.
What would you suggest?
The waveforms here aren't super high definition samples so compression would be hard to tell here. They are both running an SBC (mp3 quality) music file over bluetooth so the bit rate is the same. If you can get the original acton, it's just as good sounding at the 3. It's the 2 I recommend avoiding for muddy sound.
Dude that shirt is lit where did you get it?
I love the way this speaker looks, but kind of hate the idea of having home speakers. I personally prefer portable speakers, but that's just a pet peeve of mine. I also completely agree on your opinion that the Acton 3 sounds the best out of all of them. It would most definitely make for an amazing part of a home speaker setup. Love the video and I hope to see some more speaker reviews in the near future, have a nice day, Danny!!
You may be better off with the Kilburn II or the Stockwell. I wish the Kilburn II had the same controls and on switch as the Acton. Shame.
hey, can this be used as a home theatre speaker for my TV?
This might take a bit of work but was wondering if you could perhaps do a list of speakers that work with Google Assistant.
How loud were you pushing the Klipsch speakers before they started to distort?
Hey Danny, I have a Emberton II and it is amazing. Now I am kind struggling to choose between Acton III and Harman Kardon Aura Studio 4. Do you have any idea about these 2?
Hai danny ,
Can you please recommend some Bluetooth speakers less than $150 with 3.5mm jack connectivity .
Thanks
If you were to pick one between Soundcore x600 and Marshall Acton III, Which one would you for for?
Hi,
I have a Kilburn 2 portable speaker currently. And I am looking to stack up another Marshall speaker along with it to play songs on both the speakers. Can you please help clarify which all Marshall speakers are compatible to be stacked together with Kilburn 2?
Yeay, I watched the full video, thanks for the thank you🤣
You did it! And helped :)
I have the original acton, what do you think of buying acton 3? Original acton is bad bluetooth connection😂 But I like sound quality. I can't decide.
Thank you for the good video!
Hi Danny...awesome review....ACTON 3 is currently 299 ( Canadian ) ... 215 ( US ) ......would you say thats a great deal and worth the money ? thx bud....cheers from Canada
Finally bought the Marshall acton 3 , brown colour today , just to clarify does the metal accents in this version look kind of rose goldish , couldn’t find any videos to compare , please do clarify
Hi, just a quick question is this good on computer and gaming stuff? ( I honestly don't know about speakers ) thank you!
Can I connect my electric guitar directly or by a sound effect pedal to this speaker ?
Will the Woburn 3 also come in brown?
hi everyone. I have a pair of bose soundlink flex. I alway pair them whenever I wanted to listen to them. sounds great in stereo. how about these pair vs the marshall acton III alone.. ? which sound the best ? thanks.
Your UA-cam videos can be reade outside the app ? That awesome. First time to see that. I try other channel they don’t. 😅
Is using the 3.5 aux connection have really bad audio quality as you mentioned “lossless quality audio”???
Should i turn it off everytime after i use it or just let it on ?
One Q for you is I am getting an Offer on Stanmore II which is cheaper by around US$ 120 from the Stanmore III but more or less same as Acton III. Which one to go for ??
I hear some white noise in the test especially from Acton 3 in the first part of sound demo… is it from mic or?
can I connect 2 of this to a receiver?
I purchased Marshall Acton 1 in the beginning of 2015 for 300€,still enjoying perfect sound quality
😁👍
I would like purchase it 🙂
When you say it sounds boxey for Acton 2 what does that really mean?
Does it disconnect after a while on bluetooth if no audio is playing. My emberton turns off automatically if there’s no audio being played for twentyish minutes.
2 equalizers, not 3 the first knob is the volume knob, it doesn't count as an equalizer since it's a master frequency changer, a normal equalizer changes very specific frequencies.
Why Marshall Acton iii when connected via aux port, the sound is way way softer than Bluetooth connection?
I have the original Acton, I got it at Costco and they should start selling the third gen
does it needs to be plug in all the time
Can i stack it with middletone ?
Your link for the Marshall Acton III doesn't work. Just goes to Amazon home page. Same with the Stanmore III. FYI
How is Acton 3 as a podcast speaker?
I want to buy acton 3 but here it is more expensive. Can I go for acton 2. Or something else. Please reply.
Hey, Danny! Your review is amazing as always, thanks! I heard the sound of Emberton 2 and I loved it! I just want to get something bigger and more mature with the same amazing sound. Does Acton 3 have that deep, pleasant bass and realistic vocals? And one more question is it fine if I put Acton 3 next to me, like 3 feet. I'm not fond of loud music so I prefer quality over loudness. I mean, does it also sound good at low volume? Or maybe there's a better alternative for me?
At a certain point there are a lot of speakers that would be good for you. The Acton 3 to me has a wonderful sound, and far exceeds the emberton’s ability. Yeah if you are sticking with Marshall then the Acton III or Stanmore III (both the same for close low volume listening) are more than most need. You’ll like the vocals on it.
@@DannyPops Got it, thanks a lot! 👍
on/off not hearing mashall sound?(drum sound)?
Hi Danny, thanks for this useful video!
Which speaker would you recommend between this Marshall Acton 3 and the UE hyperboom ?
The hyperboom is awesome and loud but so expensive now with inflation. I think the acton 3 will get you enough boom for a casual listener.
@@DannyPops Thanks for your answer 👍 I think I'll buy myself an Acton 3 for christmas!
acton iii or stanmore iii?
How durable are these
Hey👋🏻 great video😊
What about Stanmore 2 compare to Acton 3 ? Is that good to have Stanmore 2 compare to Acton 3?
I think the acton III is a better buy for the overall sound
What is buterry sound?
Super!
I bet Slayer sounds great on it.
Hey Danny, I got the Acton 3 after your review - thanks for the recommendation!
I'm wondering if you have noticed a similar issue that I'm facing with Acton 3. There is a constant hissing sound (like whitenoise) coming out of the speaker as soon as I turn the power on (regardless of whether the source button is on AUX or Bluetooth mode). It is quite noticeable on standby mode (i.e. when the power is on and on AUX mode but no cable connected yet/no music paying through the speaker) and I can still recognize it at low volume levels 1-4. From 5 upwords it seems to be disappearing. Is this normal on this device or I got a bad apple?
Hmmm no that doesn't sound normal, I replied in a video short here: ua-cam.com/users/shortsipXChYGTHYs
Is that new tech already released. I find it quite weird that they market a product with new features, but it relies on tech which has not been released yet. That sound so weird
