310 Grams of Marshall DNA
The Willen fits in your palm. It's about the size of a thick smartphone, roughly 10 cm tall and 4 cm deep. But pick it up and it feels solid, not like a toy. The textured grille, the brass Marshall script, the control knob on the front. It looks and feels like a Marshall product that got shrunk in the wash, in the best possible way.
The single 2-inch full-range driver pushes 10 watts. That's not going to rattle windows, but it fills a kitchen, a bathroom, or a campsite with clear, balanced sound. Bass is present without being muddy, and vocals come through clean. For a speaker this small, the frequency range of 100 Hz to 20,000 Hz is genuinely impressive.
IP67: Dust, Sand, Rain, Full Submersion
Most portable speakers in this size range top out at IPX4 or IPX5. The Willen earned an IP67 rating, which means it's fully sealed against dust and can handle being submerged in up to 1 metre of water for 30 minutes. Take it to the beach, the pool, the ski hill in Tremblant. Leave it on the dock during a rainstorm. It genuinely does not care.
The rubber-backed strap on the rear adds another layer of versatility. Loop it around a shower head, hang it from a tent pole, strap it to your bike handlebars. It stays put. We've seen customers clip it to a golf bag and a kayak rig. Marshall clearly designed this thing to get tossed around.
15+ Hours and a 20-Minute Quick Charge
Battery life on the Willen sits at 15+ hours on a single charge. That's a full day at the cottage or a long weekend of moderate use without hunting for an outlet. When you do need juice, 20 minutes on the USB-C cable gives you about 3 hours of playtime. A full recharge takes roughly 3 hours.
Bluetooth 5.1 keeps the wireless connection stable within about 10 metres. Pairing is fast and the dedicated Bluetooth button on the speaker makes switching between devices straightforward. The Marshall app (iOS and Android) opens up three EQ presets if you want to tweak the sound profile.
Built-In Mic and One-Knob Control
The multi-directional control knob on the front handles play/pause, skip, volume, and power. It's a Marshall signature, and on a speaker this small it makes more sense than fiddly buttons. You can answer and reject phone calls directly from the speaker thanks to the built-in microphone. Voice quality is decent for quick calls, not a replacement for a proper headset, but perfectly fine for a hands-free chat while cooking or working in the garage.

Who Is This For?
The Outdoor Adventurer
You need a speaker that can handle a canoe trip in the Laurentians, a beach day in Ogunquit, or a hike where everything ends up damp. The Willen's IP67 rating means you stop worrying about water and dust entirely. Clip it to your pack with the rubber strap and forget about it until you want music. At 310 grams, you won't even notice it's there.
The Shower Singer
Real talk: this is one of the best shower speakers you can buy. The rubber strap loops over a shower head or towel bar. IP67 means steam and direct water spray are fine. The single control knob lets you skip tracks with wet hands. And if someone calls, you can answer without stepping out. 15+ hours means you're charging it once a week, tops.
The Desk Worker
Not everyone needs a massive speaker on their desk. The Willen sits next to a monitor without eating up space, looks great with its Marshall aesthetic, and plays clean enough for podcasts, video calls, and background music all day. The built-in mic handles calls, the app lets you EQ to your taste, and 15+ hours of battery means you unplug it Friday and it's still going Monday.
