Short answer: both are discontinued, so this only matters if you are buying used, though neither ranks well in its class. Used, the Demerbox DB2 is the better pick: it ranks #74 of 112 boombox speakers by sound quality (rated 2.8/5), against #82 (rated 2.6/5) for the Bumpboxx Flare 6. Both are rated below 3.0/5 among the 112 boombox speakers, so if sound quality matters, consider the Tribit Stormbox Blast instead, ranked #2 at $179.99.
The case for the Bumpboxx Flare 6: A retro styled stereo party speaker with water resistance and a 12 hour battery. The tradeoff: There is no companion app.
The Demerbox DB2 is the longer-running, lighter option. A nearly indestructible waterproof speaker built from a Pelican case, with a 40 hour battery and dry storage. It is rated for 40 hours of battery against 12 for the Bumpboxx Flare 6. At 5.4 lbs (2.47 kg) it weighs much less than the Bumpboxx Flare 6 at 13 lbs (5.9 kg). The catch: Bass is not as deep as better speakers.
Buy the Demerbox DB2 only if you find one used in good condition; both are discontinued, and it is the better rated of the two. For a new speaker, start with the Tribit Stormbox Blast instead.
