Short answer: the Sonos Move 2 if sound quality matters most, the W-King D8 if price matters most. The Sonos Move 2 ranks #28 of 115 large speakers, rated 4.1/5, at $480. The W-King D8 ranks #58, rated 3.5/5, at $79.99, $400.01 cheaper.
The Sonos Move 2 is the better-sounding option. A Wi-Fi and Bluetooth portable with warm, full sound, clear mids and a long battery for moving around the home. The catch: Not very loud.
Why pick the W-King D8: An affordable stereo boombox with four drivers, waterproofing, and a long battery for backyard and beach playlists. The tradeoff: Bass is limited by its 49Hz specification.
Buy the Sonos Move 2 when sound quality outweighs the price for you, and the W-King D8 when the price outweighs sound quality instead.
