Marshall isn’t just dabbling in TV audio—it’s going all in, and it wants to have all bases covered. Big room? Checked. Cozy nook? Checked. Craving bass that rattles the furniture? Double‑checked. Where the Heston 120 has the big room covered, the new Heston 60 and Heston Sub 200 have cozy space and bassheads covered.
The Heston 60 is the more apartment-friendly sibling in the family. Smaller in size, easier to place, but still tuned to deliver that unmistakable Marshall punch. It supports Dolby Atmos, so movie nights get proper spatial sound, not just louder dialogue. Explosions land where they should, voices stay clear, and background details no longer hide in the mix.
Design-wise, Marshall stayed in its lane, and that is a good thing. You get tactile physical controls, the familiar salt-and-pepper fret, and PU leather finish. The logo and control panel are magnetic, which is a clever touch since the Heston 60 can sit flat on a TV bench or mount against a wall without looking awkward. It also comes in black or cream, both of which are very Marshall.
Wireless connectivity covers Wi-Fi, Bluetooth with Auracast, and integrated music services, so it pulls double duty as a music speaker. Sound modes include Movie, Music, Night, and Voice, which means less scrambling for the remote at midnight.
Then there is the Heston Sub 200. This is where things get physical. Wireless, easy to move around, and tuned to add the kind of low-end you feel more than hear, it turns the Heston 60 into a serious setup and gives the larger Heston 120 even more weight. It shares the same classic Marshall look and is designed to blend in visually while shaking the room sonically.
Both units work together through the Marshall app, and both are designed to be repairable, which feels refreshingly long-term.
The Marshall Heston 60 and Heston Sub 200 went on sale starting September 23, 2025, priced at US$699.99 and US$599.99, respectively.
