Marshall has never been a brand for polite background noise. This Lunar New Year, it’s leaning fully into that attitude with the Emberton III Lunar New Year Edition 2026, a limited-run portable speaker that blends thunderous sound, bold art, and festive energy into one very collectable box.

Released under Marshall’s “Live Unbridled” banner, the speaker takes inspiration from the idea of a wild horse breaking free. Fitting, since this Year of the Horse drop is anything but restrained. Designed in collaboration with Chinese artist FCCK, the Emberton III Lunar New Year Edition turns the speaker into a visual statement piece, not just something you tuck away on a shelf.

Only 50 Units. No Reprints. No Second Chances.

Here’s the headline for collectors and sound obsessives alike: only 50 units of the Emberton III Lunar New Year Edition 2026 are available in Malaysia, each priced at RM1,149. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

The speaker officially lands on 7 February at AGAINST LAB., making their Pudu flagship the only physical place to get your hands on this limited edition. For those of you who can’t make it to the store, you can also purchase the speaker online at againstlab.com.

A Pop-Up That Goes Beyond the Speaker

To mark the launch, AGAINST LAB. is hosting a pop-up activation that feels more like a Lunar New Year hangout than a standard retail event. Visitors can take part in a couplet customisation workshop, putting a modern spin on the traditional festive ritual of personalised blessings.

Soundtracking the afternoon are DJ sets by VKANG and ADER2K, with light refreshments flowing to keep things sociable. It’s the kind of launch where you’re encouraged to stay, listen, and actually enjoy yourself.

Portable, Powerful, and Made to Be Seen

At its core, the Emberton III remains true to what Marshall does best: big, confident sound in a compact, go-anywhere form. But this Lunar New Year edition adds another layer, turning the speaker into a cultural artefact that celebrates music, art, and tradition in equal measure.

With its limited quantity, exclusive retail launch, and one-day pop-up experience, this is less a product release and more a moment. If you’re planning to usher in the new year with your music loud and your aesthetics louder, you know where to be on 7 February.
