Short answer: the JBL Flip 6 for the higher ranking, the Mifa Wildrod for the lower price. The JBL Flip 6 ranks #12 of 134 medium speakers at $129.95. The Mifa Wildrod ranks #17 at $47, $82.95 cheaper.
What the JBL Flip 6 gets right: A very neutral speaker, very small, almost pocket size, a huge sound quality leap over the Flip 5. Set against that: Not stereo.
On the Mifa Wildrod side: Flash latest firmware for the best sound, much improved bass and treble. Set against that: Not stereo, slight peak around 250hz, slightly rolled off treble.
Buy the JBL Flip 6 if the ranking matters more than the price. Buy the Mifa Wildrod if the price matters more than the ranking.

Pros: A very neutral speaker, very small, almost pocket size, a huge sound quality leap over the Flip 5.
Cons: Not stereo. Some slight upper mids emphasis. The TL version (made in Vietnam) tweeter can sound somewhat scratchy and doesn’t sound as good as the GG version (made in China)
