Short answer: the JBL Flip 7, on out-of-the-box sound. The Flip 7 is very neutral and almost pocket size, with a little bump at 4kHz against it. The Mifa Wildrod needs its latest firmware for the best sound, with much improved bass and treble, but it is not stereo, has a slight peak around 250Hz and slightly rolled off treble.
Buy the JBL Flip 7. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the Mifa Wildrod is discontinued, so it is only available used.

The Two Speakers In Full
JBL Flip 7: $119.95 Amazon eBay
Older models: the JBL Flip 6 (ranked higher, rated 4.2/5), the JBL Flip 5 (ranked lower, rated 3.3/5) and the JBL Flip 4 (ranked lower, rated 3.3/5).
Pros: A very neutral speaker, very small, almost pocket size. Just slightly more treble than the Flip 6 which was already a great speaker. Slightly deeper bass than the Flip 6. IP68 protection, a 7-band app EQ, Auracast and a USB-C digital audio input. Measured bass extension of 59Hz (-10dB).
Cons: A little bit of a bump at 4kHz, not quite as neutral as the Flip 6. On balance it is the slightly worse of the two.
