Short answer: the JBL Go 4. It ranks #30 of 62 small speakers by sound quality, rated 3.2/5, at $49.95; the Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker ranks #62, rated 2.0/5, and costs $59.98, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The JBL Go 4 is the better-sounding, deeper-bass pick. A pocket sized waterproof mini speaker with a loop for hanging and app EQ. Its bass reaches about 82Hz before falling 10dB, against 300Hz for the Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker. It links with other speakers (Auracast), which the Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker cannot. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker lacks. The tradeoff: Not much bass at all, especially with electronic/bass-heavy tracks pushed past ~50% volume.
The Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker is the lighter pick. A tiny wearable speaker with a clip, dust and water resistance, and a microphone for calls on a job site. At 0.1 lbs (56 g) it weighs much less than the JBL Go 4 at 0.4 lbs (190 g).
Buy the JBL Go 4. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Dewalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
