These sit in different size classes, so this is not a straight ranking comparison. The JBL Partybox Club 120 ranks #6 of 50 party speakers by sound quality at $349.95; the Tribit Stormbox Blast 2 ranks #31 of 111 boombox speakers by sound quality at $279.99.
Why pick the JBL Partybox Club 120: A party speaker on wheels with quite neutral sound, a removable battery, and mic and guitar inputs. It links with other speakers (Auracast), which the Tribit Stormbox Blast 2 cannot. The tradeoff: High price, and JBL’s wired daisy chain only works with other JBL speakers.
The Tribit Stormbox Blast 2 is the longer-running, tougher choice. A big, waterproof party speaker with deep bass, very high volume, a 30 hour battery and two mic inputs. It is rated for 30 hours of battery against 12 for the JBL Partybox Club 120. It is rated IP67 against IPX4 for the JBL Partybox Club 120. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the JBL Partybox Club 120 lacks. The catch: Sounds quite muddy with the boosted lower and upper bass.
Buy the JBL Partybox Club 120 ($349.95) for a party speaker; the Tribit Stormbox Blast 2 ($279.99) suits a boombox speaker instead.
