Short answer: the Klipsch Austin. It ranks #15 of 62 small speakers by sound quality, rated 3.7/5, at $54.95. The Muzen Wild Go ranks #56, rated 2.4/5, at $45.99, $8.96 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The Klipsch Austin is the better-sounding, longer-running option. A rugged waterproof mini speaker with dual passive radiators, a metal grille, and stereo pairing with a second unit. It is rated for 12 hours of battery against 8 for the Muzen Wild Go. It is rated IP67 against IPX5 for the Muzen Wild Go. It links with other speakers (Broadcast Mode), which the Muzen Wild Go cannot. The tradeoff: Not as deep bass as higher ranked speakers.
The Muzen Wild Go is the lighter option. A small speaker with a vintage military radio look, a sturdy metal body, and a built in flashlight for camping trips. At 0.4 lbs (187 g) it weighs much less than the Klipsch Austin at 0.9 lbs (397 g). The tradeoff: Not much bass at all, quite thuddy.
Buy the Klipsch Austin. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $8.96 you would save on the Muzen Wild Go does not close the gap.
