Short answer: the Minirig 4 with subwoofer. It ranks #5 of 115 large speakers by sound quality, rated 4.6/5, at $290. The W-King T9 ranks #50, rated 3.6/5, at $111.23, $178.77 cheaper, which does not close the gap in sound quality.
The Minirig 4 with subwoofer is the better-sounding, lighter option. A compact speaker and wireless subwoofer pair with some of the most balanced sound available, a long battery and deep, impactful bass. At 3.2 lbs (1.44 kg) it weighs much less than the W-King T9 at 10.1 lbs (4.6 kg). It is rated Splash resistant, while the W-King T9 has no water resistance. It has an adjustable EQ, which the W-King T9 lacks. The catch: Not stereo, app is buggy.
Why pick the W-King T9: A loud stereo party speaker with a wireless microphone for karaoke, lights, a long battery and a power bank. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the Minirig 4 with subwoofer. Watch for: Peaks in the upper mids which makes it sound a bit harsh.
Buy the Minirig 4 with subwoofer. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $178.77 you would save on the W-King T9 does not close the gap.
