Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2 for deeper bass, the Klipsch Nashville for the sturdier build. The Boom 2 plays pretty deep bass for its size, but it has only a single midrange driver, so you get stereo only from the tweeters. The Nashville has the sturdy rubber-coated build, though it adds an upper bass boost.
Buy the Klipsch Nashville at $87.95 if you want a medium speaker. Buy the Soundcore Boom 2 at $99.99 if you want a large speaker instead.
