The Marshall Bromley 150 is the newest, and smallest model in its line, packing party-ready sound into a compact cube-shaped cabinet. Despite its diminutive stature, this Bluetooth speaker is pretty mighty, boasting a 200W power output with a single woofer and dual full-range drivers. But is it any good?

Well, I’ve spent many an hour putting the Marshall Bromley 150 through its paces, listening to countless tunes, messing around with its various features, and testing out its stage-inspired lighting. So here’s how I’d rate it after extensive use.

I’ve been really impressed with Marshall’s Bromley models to date, which easily compete with some of the best Bluetooth speakers around. They’ve provided ultra-deep, punchy bass that never subdues other sounds along the frequency range, look absolutely spectacular, and have great battery life to boot. And the Bromley 150 is no different.

Let’s start with sound quality. As you might expect from a party speaker (although it's not always a given), the Bromley 150’s low-end output is the main event. It provides the sort of bass that you feel in your soul — it's deliciously rich, palpable, and almost earth-shaking. And for a speaker of this size, that's impressive.

For instance, when tuning into Cowboy Killer by Kyle Walker and Nate Katz, deep bass hit with tremendous impact while remaining regimented, resulting in a powerful yet controlled listening experience. Even then, the raw power of the Bromley 150’s dynamic bass didn’t come at the expense of sounds elsewhere in the frequency range — higher-pitched drums were precise and expressive and keys in the mid-range were well-defined and clear in the mix.
