Full details
The Marshall Acton IV is a compact home speaker designed for listeners who prioritize high-fidelity sound and iconic aesthetics in smaller living spaces. Its standout feature is its powerful, clear bass response and the integration of Auracast technology for seamless multi-room audio expansion. While it excels in sound quality and design, potential buyers should note that as a dedicated home speaker, it lacks an internal battery and requires a constant connection to a wall outlet for operation.

FAQs
Does the Acton IV have a battery?
No, the Acton IV is a mains-powered home speaker and must be plugged into an electrical outlet.
Can I connect multiple devices at once?
Yes, the speaker features multi-host functionality, allowing you to switch between paired Bluetooth devices easily.
Is the cream finish prone to staining?
The cream vinyl is durable, but like any light-colored material, it should be kept away from ink, dye transfer from clothing, and sticky substances.
Does it work with a wired connection?
The primary interface is Bluetooth, but users should check the rear panel for available auxiliary input ports.
Can I use this with a record player?
Yes, you can connect a turntable, provided it has a built-in pre-amp or you are using an external pre-amp connected to the auxiliary input.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Acton IV, connect the power cord to a wall outlet and use the top-mounted power toggle to wake the device. Use the Bluetooth pairing button to connect your smartphone, tablet, or laptop. The speaker is compatible with all standard Bluetooth-enabled audio sources. For care, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges on the cream vinyl finish. Instead, use a soft, dry lint-free cloth to dust the cabinet. If the brass knobs accumulate fingerprints, a light wipe with a microfiber cloth will maintain their luster. Always keep the speaker in a climate-controlled environment to preserve the integrity of the internal drivers and external upholstery.
