Short answer: the Gemini GGO-650L, though neither ranks well in its class. It ranks #86 of 113 boombox speakers by sound quality, rated 2.5/5, at $99.95. The Zealot S78 ranks #111, rated 2.0/5, at $91.38, $8.57 cheaper, not enough of a saving to outweigh the sound-quality gap. Both are rated below 3.0/5 among the 113 boombox speakers, so if sound quality matters, consider the Bugani Brief Pro instead, ranked #28 at $99.98.
The Gemini GGO-650L is the better-sounding choice. An inexpensive stereo party speaker with a big woofer, water resistance and a 10 hour battery.
The Zealot S78 is the longer-running, tougher option. A loud, rugged party speaker with full waterproofing, a power bank and wireless pairing for outdoor parties. It is rated for 40 hours of battery against 10 for the Gemini GGO-650L. It is rated IP67 against IPX5 for the Gemini GGO-650L. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Gemini GGO-650L lacks. The tradeoff: At high volume, reviews report distortion and fluctuating level, so its headline power is more useful below its maximum setting.
Buy the Gemini GGO-650L. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $8.57 saving on the Zealot S78 is not enough to make up the difference.
