Short answer: the JBL Partybox 110 for cleaner sound, the Klipsch Gig XXL for value. The Gig XXL is really amazing value for the money at $79.99 against the Partybox 110’s $379.95, but it is not quite as clean sounding as the top ranked speakers. The Partybox 110 is very neutral, slightly better than the Partybox 100, though its bass is not as deep as that speaker’s.
Buy the JBL Partybox 110 if sound quality is the priority over the price, or the Klipsch Gig XXL if the price is the priority over sound quality.
Water resistance is not close: the JBL Partybox 110 is rated at IPX4 (splashing), well ahead of the Klipsch Gig XXL at no water resistance.
