Short answer: the JBL Partybox 710. It ranks #7 of 13 large party speakers by sound quality (rated 4.7/5) at $649 and is still sold new; the Teufel Rockster ranks #9 (rated 4.4/5) and is discontinued, so it is only an option used. The Teufel Rockster’s replacement, the Teufel Rockster 2, is rated 4.7/5 at $1,269.94.
The JBL Partybox 710 is the tougher pick. A big, powerful mains party speaker with excellent sound and deep bass, plus wheels and a handle for moving it. It is rated IPX4, while the Teufel Rockster has no water resistance. The tradeoff: Careful placement is still important for balanced bass.
The Teufel Rockster is the battery-powered choice. A battery powered party PA with a 15 inch woofer, excellent sound, very high output, and mic and guitar inputs, now discontinued. Its battery is rated for 30 hours, while the JBL Partybox 710 needs an outlet. It supports aptX Bluetooth, which the JBL Partybox 710 lacks.
Buy the JBL Partybox 710. It is rated higher for sound quality and still sold new, while the Teufel Rockster is discontinued.
