Marshall Bromley 750 – Marshall’s first party speaker comes with stage-inspired LEDs
The Bromley 750 joins Marshall’s lineup of amplifiers, soundbars, headphones, earbuds and other portable speakers.
Marshall has a storied history in guitar amps, being the go-to for many individuals and venues since the 1960s. The iconic black and brass design has been carried forward and across their array of modern products. Now, Marshall are stepping into the new territory of party speakers. A space we’ve seen occupied in recent years by the likes of Sony, JLab, JBL, Hisense, LG, Sharp, Samsung and others.
When we first considered entering the party speaker category, we saw an opportunity to bring something different to a uniform market. By staying true to our identity and what we are great at—prioritizing iconic design and superior acoustics—we’ve created a standout product that brings something fresh to an otherwise homogenous category.

We designed Bromley 750 to be something you want to keep out and show off — a speaker that becomes part of your home and interior. The design is rooted in our heritage, with ‘party’ at its core. It’s bold and straightforward, with every material chosen for a reason — to both look good and withstand countless parties to come. Inspired by stage lighting, we’ve incorporated lights in a new way, enhancing the atmosphere and elevating the entire experience.

The new Bromley 750 looks undeniably Marshall, with its brushed metal control panel, water-based PU leather wrap and stamped metal grille. The speaker measures 652 x 413 x 355 mm/25.7 x 16.3 x 14 inches and weighs around 24kg/53lbs. There are built-in side handles, a retractable suitcase style handle and wheels to help you transport, and manage the size and weight. The Bromley 750 can handle dirt, rain and dust with an IP54 rating and built-in drainage system.
Internally, there are two 10-inch 150W woofers, two 5.25-inch 50W mid-range drivers, two 1-inch 7W tweeters and two 0.8-inch 14W tweeters, for a total of eight on-board speakers. These drivers enable “True Stereophonic 360°”, which means the speaker can be placed anywhere for optimal sound.
In an array behind the front grille, is a grid of LEDs. There are three presets, including two that react to the music. When off, the LEDs are hidden behind the grille.
The Marshall Bromley 750 gets over 40 hours of playtime, plus an exchangeable battery, allowing you to swap the battery out for endless music. It’s currently unclear the pricing and availability of additional Bromley batteries. The battery features USB-C to double as a power bank. A 20-minute charge will provide up to 5 hours of playback.
Along the top of the front of the speaker, you’ll find the control panel, with buttons including power, audio source, media control and light mode, plus knobs for volume, bass, treble, input 1 volume, input 2 volume, effects, and sound character, as well as a battery indicator. The sound character control lets you toggle between dynamic or loud, for clarity or punchiness respectively. Dynamic is suited to smaller, indoor settings, while loud is more suited to outdoor spaces.
In terms of input, there’s Bluetooth 5.3 with support for Auracast to wireless share audio between multiple compatible speakers. Around the back, there are two XLR/6.35mm combo jack inputs for microphones and other mono instruments, RCA input for DJ mixers and CD players, mains power for charging, USB-C input for wired audio, USB-C output for phone charging, and aux in and aux out, which can be used to daisy chain multiple Bromley speakers. The speaker comes with a mains lead for charging and powered use.
The Marshall Bromley 750 is available for pre-order now for $1,299.99 and will begin shipping September 23.
