Short answer: the Monster Atomic Atom. It ranks #29 of 47 small speakers by sound quality at $40; the Muzen Wild Mini ranks #40 and costs $75, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
What the Monster Atomic Atom offers: Very small, one of the smallest in the small class and good performance based on the size and weight. Watch for: For the small class, lacking quite a bit of bass compared to the top ranked speakers
What the Muzen Wild Mini offers: Distinctive retro military-radio design with an all-metal (zinc alloy) body - feels far more solid than the plastic speakers in this class. Watch for: Not much bass at all, quite thuddy.
Buy the Monster Atomic Atom. It ranks higher for sound quality than the Muzen Wild Mini and costs less, so there is no real case for the other one.
If sound quality matters at all to you, skip the Muzen Wild Mini. It ranks near the bottom of the 47 small speakers, so look higher up the list instead.
