Following the acquisition of Marshall Amplification by Zound Industries of Sweden last year and its subsequent rebranding to the Marshall Group, the latest financial figures signal a successful transition.

Our efforts have been focused on harnessing the Marshall brand’s potential while honoring its heritage and preparing for future advancements.”

The company unveiled several new products throughout 2023, including the Studio JTM Amplifier series—celebrating what would have been the birthday of founder Jim Marshall—and the Motif II A.N.C., the next generation of noise-cancelling wireless headphones. Another highlight was introducing the Middleton portable speaker, featuring a quad-speaker setup.
