Short answer: the Minirig 4, if you are buying new. The Denon Envaya DSB-250BT ranks higher than it (#6 vs #7 of 179 medium speakers, 4.4/5 vs 4.3/5) but is discontinued, so only consider it used; the Minirig 4 is still sold new at $229.95.
Buy the Minirig 4, since the Denon Envaya DSB-250BT is discontinued and only worth hunting down used.
Water resistance is not close: the Denon Envaya DSB-250BT is rated at IP67 (brief submersion), well ahead of the Minirig 4 at Splash resistant (splashing).
