Nothing is certain in life except death, taxes, and companies releasing party speakers with elaborate lighting features. Marshall’s first party speaker, the new Bromley 750, is no different, but instead of filling a room with a bright-colored glow, it features a more subtle array of LEDs hidden behind its front speaker grill. It’s available for preorder now for $1,299 and will ship in late September.

The Bluetooth speaker boasts an IP54 rating, so it should be able to shrug off the occasional spilled drink.
