Mascom International stocks the Marshall Stanmore III at KSh 40,000, brand new and sealed. It is an 80W Bluetooth 5.2 home speaker with a 50W woofer, two 15W tweeters, a 97 dB peak level at one metre and a frequency range of 45 to 20,000 Hz. Beyond Bluetooth, the Marshall Stanmore III adds RCA and 3.5mm wired inputs, and it comes in Black, Cream or Brown. You can find it, and hear it before you pay, at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The Marshall Stanmore III is the middle model of the three Marshall home speakers we stock, and the one most buyers compare first.
Designed for open-plan living rooms in Westlands and Lavington, young families, and anyone who connects a TV, a decoder and a phone to one speaker, the Marshall Stanmore III handles films, football and music equally well. Press the Source button to move between Bluetooth, RCA and 3.5mm, then turn the bass and treble knobs to suit the room. Play/pause and skip buttons on the speaker mean you rarely touch your phone mid-song. Its 50W woofer gives the kind of bass a TV's built-in speakers cannot reach.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops list a speaker with a price and a photo, Mascom International spells out the inputs, the output and what is in the box. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the Marshall Stanmore III finally gives their TV proper sound, and a cabinet this size still sits on a standard TV stand. It costs KSh 3,500 more than the Marshall Acton III and KSh 16,000 less than the Marshall Woburn III. Visit us Monday through Saturday, or order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival.
Common Questions About the Marshall Stanmore III
What is the Marshall Stanmore III price in Kenya?
The Marshall Stanmore III is priced at KSh 40,000, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price includes a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties, and there is no charger to buy because the speaker plugs straight into the wall. It sits KSh 3,500 above the Marshall Acton III at KSh 36,500 and KSh 16,000 below the Marshall Woburn III at KSh 56,000. WhatsApp us to confirm the colour in stock before you travel.
Should I choose the Marshall Stanmore III or the Marshall Woburn III?
Choose the Marshall Stanmore III for a medium or large living room, and the Marshall Woburn III only if you need to fill a hall-sized space. The Woburn III costs KSh 16,000 more and brings a bigger cabinet and more output. For most Nairobi flats, the Stanmore III already plays louder than neighbours will welcome. Spend the KSh 16,000 you save on a good cable, a surge protector or a turntable, and you keep the same Marshall look and app. Pick the Woburn III only when the extra room size is real.
Which inputs does the Marshall Stanmore III have for a TV or decoder?
The Marshall Stanmore III has an RCA input, a 3.5mm input and Bluetooth 5.2, and the Source button switches between them. RCA suits the red and white audio outputs found on many TVs and decoders, while 3.5mm suits laptops and phones. A wired link avoids wireless delay, so voices stay in step with lips during films and football. The cable is not in the box, so buy the one that fits your TV from Mascom International. Our team will match it to your set at the counter, so you leave with everything you need.
How does the Marshall Stanmore III cope with Kenyan heat, dust and humidity?
The Marshall Stanmore III is a mains-powered indoor speaker with no dust or water rating listed, so place it away from open windows, kitchens and damp walls. Nairobi dust settles on the front grille, so wipe it with a dry cloth. On the coast, in Mombasa or Malindi, humid air is hard on any electronics, so choose a ventilated room. Plug it into a surge protector to guard against KPLC power spikes. Leave a few centimetres of space around the cabinet so it stays cool and the bass stays clean.
Who should buy the Marshall Stanmore III, and who should skip it?
Buy the Marshall Stanmore III for a family lounge, a TV corner or a music lover with a CD player or a turntable that has a built-in preamp. Skip it if you want a speaker to carry outdoors, because it has no battery; the Marshall Kilburn III at KSh 41,000 is the portable option in our shop. Skip it also for a bedroom shelf or small desk, where the Marshall Acton III at KSh 36,500 fits better. Unsure about your room? Tell our team and we will point you to the right model.
How big a room can the Marshall Stanmore III fill?
The Marshall Stanmore III delivers 80W of total output and reaches 97 dB at one metre, enough to fill a large living room or an open-plan space. Its 50W woofer carries the bass, and the two 15W tweeters handle treble. The cabinet measures about 35 by 20 by 19 cm and weighs 4.25 kg, so plan for a stable shelf or TV stand. For a hall or a big party, the Marshall Woburn III has more output. For a bedroom or study, the Stanmore III is more than enough.
What do the knobs and buttons on the Marshall Stanmore III do?
The Marshall Stanmore III has a power switch, a Source button, and knobs for volume, bass and treble. Play/pause and skip buttons let you control music from the speaker with no phone in hand, and the Source button cycles through Bluetooth, RCA and 3.5mm. The Marshall Bluetooth app on iOS and Android adds sound customisation and over-the-air software updates. You can run the speaker from the sofa with your phone or from the shelf with your hands. Both ways reach the same sound settings, so choose whichever is closer.
Is the Marshall Stanmore III good for a clinic, salon or shop?
Yes, for background music in a small clinic waiting room, a salon in Westlands or a boutique in Nairobi CBD. The 80W output and 97 dB peak level suit an ordinary-sized space, and the RCA and 3.5mm inputs let a laptop or media player feed it all day. It is built as a home speaker rather than commercial equipment, so heavy daily use is a judgement call. The 12-month warranty covers manufacturing defects under normal use. Ask our team about your space and hours of use before you buy.
Technical Specifications
Audio Hardware
- 50W Class D woofer — a dedicated bass driver that gives low notes weight. Class D is an efficient amplifier design that runs cool.
- Two 15W Class D tweeters — small drivers for treble that bring out vocals, cymbals and the bite of a guitar.
- 80W total output — the sum of the three amplifiers, enough for a large living room or open-plan space.
- 45 to 20,000 Hz frequency response — the range of pitch the speaker plays, from deep bass notes to the top of treble.
- 97 dB peak sound level at one metre — loud enough for a lively gathering without the music breaking up.
- Bass-reflex cabinet — a tuned port that pushes out more low-end, so a mid-sized box still delivers deep bass.
Wireless Connectivity
- Bluetooth 5.2 — pairs with Android phones, iPhones, laptops and tablets for cable-free music.
- Ready for Bluetooth LE Audio — the newer wireless standard that carries sound more efficiently as phones adopt it.
- Marshall Bluetooth app for iOS and Android — change the sound and manage the speaker from your phone.
- Sound customisation in the app — save the tone you like and adjust it without leaving the sofa.
- Over-the-air software updates — new features reach the speaker through the app, with no cable and no shop visit.
- Works with any streaming app — Bluetooth carries your phone's audio, so playlists, podcasts and video soundtracks all play.
Power and Energy
- Mains-powered design — the speaker runs from a wall socket, which suits a fixed spot such as a TV stand or shelf.
- No internal battery — it plays only while plugged in, so it does not need charging and does not lose battery life with age.
- Mains lead included in the box — you can plug in and play on day one without buying extras.
- Power switch on the speaker — switch it off fully when you travel, then unplug it for extra peace of mind.
- Full output for hours — with mains power you can keep the volume high through a long afternoon of football or music.
Build and Durability
- Dimensions of 350 by 203 by 188 mm — about 35 cm wide, so it needs a stand or shelf of at least that width.
- Weight of 4.25 kg — heavy enough to stay put when the bass plays, light enough to move between rooms.
- Colours in Black, Cream and Brown — pick the one that suits your furniture and confirm stock on WhatsApp.
- Cabinet and grille styled after Marshall's guitar amplifiers — a look that stands out in a lounge.
- No dust or water rating listed — keep it indoors and dry, away from splashes and open windows.
- Bass-reflex cabinet — the shape of the box, not extra size, gives the low-end depth.
Controls and Inputs
- RCA input — the red and white audio sockets on many TVs, decoders, CD players and turntables with a preamp.
- 3.5mm analogue input — the headphone-style socket on laptops, phones and tablets, for a wired link.
- Bluetooth input — the wireless route, which leaves your phone free to move around the room.
- Source button — one press moves the speaker between Bluetooth, RCA and 3.5mm without unplugging a cable.
- Volume, bass and treble knobs — shape the sound by hand for a small room, a large room or a favourite genre.
- Play/pause and skip buttons — run your music from the speaker, with no need to unlock a phone.
- RCA and 3.5mm cables not supplied — the box holds the speaker, the manual and the mains lead only.
Package Contents
Inside the box you get the Marshall Stanmore III speaker, a user manual with legal and safety information, and the mains lead. That is enough to power up and pair over Bluetooth straight away. Cables for the RCA and 3.5mm inputs are not included, so ask our team at Mascom International to match the right one to your TV, decoder or laptop.
