These are not really the same size class, and that is the honest framing here. The Sonos Move 2 ranks #28 of 120 large speakers by sound quality at $480; the Zealot S89 ranks #19 of 113 boombox speakers by sound quality at $193.58.
The Sonos Move 2 is the lighter pick. A Wi-Fi and Bluetooth portable with warm, full sound, clear mids and a long battery for moving around the home. At 6.6 lbs (3 kg) it weighs much less than the Zealot S89 at 16.1 lbs (7.3 kg). The tradeoff: Not very loud.
The Zealot S89 is the longer-running pick. A great value boombox with deep bass, very high volume, a 40 hour battery and water resistance for outdoor parties. It is rated for 40 hours of battery against 24 for the Sonos Move 2. It links with other speakers (PartyAdd up to 100 speakers), which the Sonos Move 2 cannot. It has an adjustable EQ, which the Sonos Move 2 lacks. Watch for: At high volume, listener reports describe the bass as loose or muddy and the overall balance as less clear than better boombox speakers.
Buy the Sonos Move 2 ($480) for a large speaker; the Zealot S89 ($193.58) suits a boombox speaker instead.
