The newly launched Heddon music streaming hub by Marshall introduces seamless multi-room audio capabilities for existing Bluetooth speakers. Priced at $300, this device enables users to connect and synchronize older Marshall speakers, enhancing their audio experience without the need for built-in Wi-Fi.
Utilizing Auracast technology, the Heddon links to popular services like Spotify Connect and Tidal over Wi-Fi, while also supporting audio streaming via Google Cast and AirPlay. The hub is compatible with the Marshall Acton III, Stanmore III, and Woburn III models, offering users control through a dedicated app. Additionally, it features RCA ports for connecting external speakers or record players.
Marshall emphasizes that the Heddon will allow for future updates, potentially extending the usability of their speakers. Customers purchasing eligible Marshall speakers can acquire the Heddon at half price or receive it for free when buying two or more speakers. The Heddon is currently available for purchase.
