Detailed review of the outstanding features and specifications of Marshall Uxbridge Voice with Google Assistant

More than just an ordinary Bluetooth speaker, the Marshall Uxbridge Voice is a fusion of heritage sound and modern voice control technology.

Classic Design – The Marshall Look

At first glance, the Uxbridge Voice impresses with its Marshall amplifier-inspired appearance – a retro style with a touch of iconic rock 'n' roll.

The front is a classic woven fabric mesh, the shiny metal Marshall logo is placed solemnly in the middle, and the top of the device has rocker-style bass, treble and volume adjustment levers that help users customize the sound intuitively as if using a real amplifier.

Compact design (128 x 168 x 123 mm) and moderate weight (1.39 kg) help you easily arrange the speaker anywhere in the room while still creating a subtle aesthetic highlight.

Google Assistant – Hands-free control, smart and responsive

As part of the smart speaker ecosystem, Marshall Uxbridge Voice integrates the full-featured Google Assistant. From playing music by voice, asking for weather information, calendar appointments, to controlling smart home devices such as lights, TVs, air conditioners, all with just the command "Hey Google".

Thanks to the pair of omnidirectional far-field microphones, the speaker still accurately recognizes voices even when playing music at medium to high volumes. In particular, you can turn the mic on/off with a hardware key to protect privacy.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity – Flexible in any situation

Uxbridge Voice supports dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi, allowing users to stream music directly from platforms such as Spotify Connect, Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Cast with high quality and outstanding stability. When Wi-Fi is not available, you can still use Bluetooth 4.2 to quickly and conveniently pair your phone or tablet.

Although it doesn't support aptX or AAC, with SBC, the speaker still ensures uninterrupted sound within a range of ~10 meters - more than enough for personal use.

Audio Performance – Small but mighty

Despite its small size, the Marshall Uxbridge Voice still has a 30W Class D amplifier, enough to produce loud, clear, and full sound in a space of 10-15m². The frequency range of 54Hz - 20.000Hz helps to reproduce quite deep bass, bright treble and clear mid vocals.

The speaker delivers a balanced listening experience for a wide range of music genres – from pop, jazz to acoustic rock. Thanks to the physical EQ and app-controlled adjustments, you can fine-tune the bass or treble to your personal preferences, making the sound more “in tune” in different spaces.
