Short answer: the EarFun Uboom L. It ranks #2 of 177 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.6/5, at $49.79. The Tribit Xsound Go ranks #101, rated 3.1/5, at $34.99, $14.80 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The EarFun Uboom L is the better-sounding, deeper-bass pick. A great value medium speaker with clear, natural sound, waterproofing, and a Video Mode that keeps audio in sync with video. Its bass reaches about 56Hz before falling 10dB, against 83Hz for the Tribit Xsound Go. Alan Ross Reviews measured it at 103dB at full volume, against 98dB for the Tribit Xsound Go. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Tribit Xsound Go lacks. The tradeoff: It cannot produce real low-bass rumble or fill a large, noisy space, and the top end loses some detail.
The Tribit Xsound Go is the longer-running, lighter pick. A very light, inexpensive waterproof stereo speaker with long battery life for travel and casual listening. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 16 for the EarFun Uboom L. At 0.8 lbs (380 g) it weighs much less than the EarFun Uboom L at 1.4 lbs (650 g). Watch for: Lacking quite a bit of bass compared to bigger speakers.
Buy the EarFun Uboom L. It is rated higher for sound quality, and saving $14.80 with the Tribit Xsound Go does not make up for the sound-quality gap.
