Marshall’s latest release isn’t a speaker at all but a clever bridge between the analog charm of its retro‑styled boxes and the convenience of modern streaming. The Heddon hub is a compact unit that connects to your home network via Ethernet or Wi‑Fi and broadcasts music wirelessly to supported Marshall speakers using Auracast technology. With native Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Apple AirPlay and Google Cast built in, it frees listeners from Bluetooth’s range and pairing headaches.

The hub works natively with the third‑generation Acton III, Stanmore III and Woburn III speakers once they receive a firmware update. Owners of older Marshall models aren’t left out; Heddon’s RCA outputs let it feed audio to any amplifier or powered speaker, while a pair of RCA inputs allow you to plug in a turntable or other analog source. You can group compatible speakers into rooms for synchronized playback or send different streams to different zones, effectively turning your Marshall collection into a modular multi‑room system.

About the size of a stack of coasters and clad in the brand’s signature vinyl, the $299 hub is available from January 2026 via Marshall’s website. Buyers purchasing multiple third‑gen speakers can snag the Heddon at a discount, making it an affordable way to modernize a classic hi‑fi aesthetic. For those who love the sound and style of Marshall’s amps but want whole‑house convenience, Heddon might be the missing piece.

The Heddon hub underscores Marshall’s push toward a more connected home-audio ecosystem, building on the brand’s long-standing blend of power and personality seen in our coverage of the Marshall Bromley 750 Party Speaker.
