Marshall is expanding its party speaker lineup in the Philippines with the Marshall Bromley 450, a compact Bluetooth party speaker that brings the brand’s iconic stage-inspired design to a more portable form factor. Bromley 450 is the smaller and more affordable sibling to the Bromley 750 that retains many of its standout features.
Design and Build
The Marshall Bromley 450 pairs Marshall’s unmistakable aesthetic with rugged construction built for long nights and loud rooms. The water-based PU leather wrap covers a premium box-style cabinet, reinforced by soft TPU plastic corner caps and a stamped metal grill. Its integrated lighting is inspired by ‘70s stage shows and sits behind the grill, ensuring the speaker looks as striking as it sounds whether placed in a living room, festival campsite, or backyard gathering.
Immersive 360° Audio
The device features Marshall’s True Stereophonic 360° sound, designed so music can be clearly heard and felt from every direction. Drivers are placed on multiple sides to help the speaker fill spaces with fast, powerful bass, clean mids, and detailed highs, making it easy to drop into dancefloor mode with a single press of play. With a maximum sound pressure level of 100 dB at 1 meter and a frequency range of 42 Hz to 20 kHz, it is built to handle everything from intimate sessions to full-on parties.
Battery Life and Durability
The Marshall Bromley 450 promises over 40 hours of playtime on a single charge, with a quick-charge function that delivers up to six hours of playback from a 20-minute top-up. It has the same rechargeable, replaceable battery of the Bromley 750, allowing users to swap packs and keep the music going even longer. The speaker is rated IP55 for dirt and splash resistance and incorporates 15% recycled material by weight to help reduce environmental impact.
Connectivity and Party Features
The device also features Bluetooth 5.3 with Auracast and multipoint connectivity and offers versatile wired inputs including AUX, USB-C, RCA, and two combo XLR/6.35 mm jacks for microphones and instruments. This enables impromptu gigs, live sets, or karaoke nights without extra gear.
It has integrated stage light presets that add visual flair, ranging from ambient glows to dynamic patterns that move with the music, while a built-in handle makes it easy to transport the 12.2 kg unit to the next party spot.
Pricing and Availability
In the Philippines, the Marshall Bromley 450 will be available starting March 31 at select Digital Walker and open_source stores and Marshall Official Stores at Shopee Mall and LazMall for PHP 42,990.00.
