Short answer: the Tribit Stormbox Blast if sound quality matters; the JBL Boombox 3 Wifi if you want the loudest. The Tribit is an amazing speaker given its size and competes with some Party class speakers, though it lacks a bit of detail and has a dip at 5.5kHz. The JBL is the loudest speaker in the category, but its bass is boosted.
Buy the Tribit Stormbox Blast. It is rated higher for sound quality than the JBL Boombox 3 Wifi and costs less, so it is the default pick unless a specific strength of the other one matters more to you.
