Warm room-filling sound for lounges, studios and small offices, from a cabinet that fits on a bookshelf.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Marshall Acton III is available at Mascom International for KSh 36,500, brand new and sealed. This Bluetooth 5.2 home speaker pairs a 30W woofer with two 15W tweeters for 60W in total, inside a compact cabinet finished in Black, Cream or Brown. The Marshall Acton III plays from 45 to 20,000 Hz and reaches 95 dB at one metre, so it fills a room without strain. The Marshall Acton III runs from a wall socket, which makes it a speaker for a fixed spot at home, not for carrying around. You can see and hear it at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, before you pay.
Built for apartment dwellers in Kilimani, university students in Nairobi, and freelancers who work from home, the Marshall Acton III replaces the thin sound of a phone speaker or laptop drivers. Its ported cabinet adds bass, and the tweeters angle outwards so sound reaches the sides of the room. Plug it into a wall socket, pair your phone over Bluetooth or run a cable into the 3.5mm input, and play. Bass and treble knobs let you shape the tone by hand, with no menu to dig through. Whether you play gospel, rock, benga or a podcast, you hear the voice and the beat clearly.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya, Mascom International sells the Marshall Acton III sealed in its box and tells you exactly what is inside. Customers across Nairobi tell us this size suits a lounge or bedroom better than a larger speaker, because it fills the space without taking over a shelf. It is the smallest of the three Marshall home speakers we stock, with the Stanmore III and Woburn III above it. Walk in Monday through Saturday, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives at your door.
Common Questions About the Marshall Acton III
How much is the Marshall Acton III in Kenya?
The Marshall Acton III costs KSh 36,500, 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. That is KSh 3,500 below the Marshall Stanmore III at KSh 40,000, which has a larger cabinet and more output. Message Mascom International on WhatsApp to confirm which colour is on the shelf before you visit or order. As the smallest of our three Marshall home speakers, it is a sensible starting point if this is your first Marshall.
Should I buy the Marshall Acton III or the Marshall Middleton II?
Buy the Marshall Acton III if the speaker will stay in one room. The Marshall Middleton II costs KSh 39,000, KSh 2,500 more, and is a portable speaker with its own battery, so it suits balconies, picnics and travel. The Acton III has no battery and needs a wall socket, but it gives you bass and treble knobs, a wired input and a larger, home-focused cabinet. Pick by where you will use it most, because that one question settles the choice for most buyers. Both carry Marshall's look and tuning.
Will the Marshall Acton III keep playing during a KPLC power cut?
No, the Marshall Acton III has no internal battery and stops when mains power fails. It accepts 100 to 240 volts, so Kenya's 240V supply is within its range. If outages are frequent in your area, a small UPS can bridge short cuts. In humid coastal towns like Mombasa, keep the speaker away from open windows. Bluetooth plays any phone app, whether it streams over Safaricom or Airtel data or Wi-Fi. Download playlists beforehand if your data bundle is low, so the music keeps playing.
Who should buy the Marshall Acton III, and who should skip it?
Buy the Marshall Acton III for a bedroom, lounge, home office or small shop where music plays from a fixed spot. Skip it if you need a speaker for outdoor gatherings, because it has no battery. Choose the Marshall Middleton II for portability. Skip it also for large halls or parties, where the Marshall Woburn III at KSh 56,000 offers more power. The Acton III is not a studio monitor, so producers should check mixes on proper monitors. Ask our team in Nairobi CBD if you are unsure which speaker fits your room.
How do I connect the Marshall Acton III to my TV or laptop?
Use the 3.5mm analogue input with a 3.5mm cable, or pair over Bluetooth 5.2. The cable is not in the box, so buy one with the speaker at Mascom International. A TV needs a headphone or audio output socket for the wired route. Bluetooth works from about 10 metres in open space, and pairing takes seconds. Android phones, iPhones, tablets and laptops all connect the same way. A cable of one to two metres usually reaches from a TV unit to a shelf speaker, so you need not move furniture.
How loud is the Marshall Acton III?
The Marshall Acton III has 60W of total output and reaches 95 dB at one metre. That is loud enough for a lounge, bedroom, small office or shop floor, with room to spare at normal listening levels. It plays from 45 to 20,000 Hz, so you hear real low notes without a subwoofer, though not the deepest room-shaking bass of a much larger speaker. Turn the bass knob down if your neighbours share a thin wall. In a flat or apartment, a moderate volume setting is usually plenty for daily listening.
Can I tune the Marshall Acton III from my phone?
Yes. The Marshall Bluetooth app on iOS and Android lets you customise the sound and manage the speaker from your phone. The app also delivers over-the-air software updates, so new features arrive without a cable or a trip to the shop. You can still adjust volume, bass and treble by hand on the speaker itself. The Marshall Acton III is also ready for Bluetooth LE Audio, the newer and more efficient wireless standard.
Is the Marshall Acton III good for a home office or content work?
It is a strong choice for background music, video calls on a laptop and reviewing video edits at a desk. Content creators, accountants and students use speakers like this to lift laptop audio. It adds Marshall's own tuning to what you play, so it is made for enjoyment rather than exact mixing. At 26 by 17 by 15 cm and 2.85 kg, it sits easily beside a monitor without crowding the desk.
Technical Specifications
Audio Hardware
- 30W Class D woofer — one dedicated bass driver, so low notes come from a driver built for them. Class D is an efficient amplifier design.
- Two 15W Class D tweeters — small drivers for treble that carry vocals, cymbals and guitar detail with clarity.
- 60W total output — the sum of all three amplifiers, enough for a living room or a small shop floor.
- 45 to 20,000 Hz frequency response — the range of pitch the speaker plays, from deep bass notes to the highest treble.
- 95 dB peak sound level at one metre — loud enough for a lively room without the sound breaking up.
- Tweeters angled outwards — they spread sound wider, so listeners at the sides of the room hear less muffling.
- Bass-reflex cabinet — a tuned port that pushes more low-end from a small box, adding bass without enlarging the speaker.
Wireless Connectivity
- Bluetooth 5.2 — pairs with Android phones, iPhones, laptops and tablets for cable-free music.
- Range of 10 metres in open space — walls and doors reduce this, so keep the phone in the same room.
- Ready for Bluetooth LE Audio — the newer wireless standard that carries sound more efficiently as devices adopt it.
- Marshall Bluetooth app for iOS and Android — adjust the sound and manage the speaker from your phone.
- Over-the-air software updates through the app — new features arrive without a cable or a visit to the shop.
- Works with any streaming app on your phone — Bluetooth carries the phone's audio directly to the speaker.
Power and Energy
- 100 to 240V, 50 to 60Hz mains input — the speaker plugs into a standard household socket.
- No internal battery — it plays only while plugged in, which suits a fixed spot such as a shelf or desk.
- Mains lead included in the box — you can plug in and play on day one.
- No charging cycles — without a battery to wear out, the speaker keeps its performance for years.
- Full output on demand — mains power means you can play at high volume for hours with no battery to drain.
Build and Durability
- Dimensions of 26 by 17 by 15 cm — small enough for a shelf, a desk or a TV stand.
- Weight of 2.85 kg — light enough to move between rooms, heavy enough to stay put when the bass plays.
- Colours in Black, Cream and Brown — pick the one that matches your furniture and confirm stock on WhatsApp.
- Cabinet and grille styled after Marshall's guitar amplifiers — a look that stands out in a lounge or studio.
- No dust or water rating listed — keep it indoors and dry, away from splashes and open windows.
- Bass-reflex cabinet keeps the sound full — the design does the work, so the speaker stays compact.
Controls and Inputs
- Rotary volume knob — turn it to raise or lower the level, with no menu or remote.
- Bass and treble knobs — shape the tone by hand to suit a small room, a large room or a favourite genre.
- 3.5mm analogue input — a wired link for a TV, laptop, CD player or any device with a headphone socket.
- Bluetooth input — the wireless route for phones, tablets and laptops.
- Sound customisation on the speaker and in the app — set a sound you like, then adjust it as you listen.
- 3.5mm cable not supplied — the box holds the speaker, the manual and the mains lead, so buy a cable separately.
Package Contents
The box holds the Marshall Acton III speaker, a user manual with legal and safety information, and the mains lead. Everything you need to plug in and pair over Bluetooth is here. A 3.5mm audio cable is not included, so add one at Mascom International if you plan to connect a TV or laptop by wire.
