Short answer: the Teufel Rockster Cross. It ranks #23 of 115 large speakers by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $199.99; the Devialet Mania ranks #52, rated 3.6/5, and costs $899, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The case for the Devialet Mania: A compact, good looking Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stereo speaker with Alexa built in and splash resistance. Watch for: Not very loud.
The Teufel Rockster Cross is the better-sounding, longer-running option. A splash resistant speaker with fairly neutral, vocal focused sound and punchy, controlled bass that suits rock and jazz. It is rated for 16 hours of battery against 10 for the Devialet Mania. It supports aptX Bluetooth, which the Devialet Mania lacks. The tradeoff: Outdoor mode can sound somewhat harsh due to the 4kHz peak.
Buy the Teufel Rockster Cross. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Devialet Mania and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
