Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus if sound quality matters most, the Havit BassBlast Go if price matters most. The Soundcore Boom 2 Plus ranks #35 of 89 boombox speakers, rated 3.6/5, at $179.99. The Havit BassBlast Go ranks #47, rated 3.4/5, at $77.99, $102 cheaper.
Why pick the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus: Quite a bit lighter than most of the other boombox size speakers. The catch: Warm tuning meaning a rolled off treble and some upper bass boost.
What the Havit BassBlast Go does well: Jagist found it a strong value for a medium size boombox, with a lot of bass for its size and a good balance on the Rock EQ. Watch for: In the only side by side against a rated speaker, listeners preferred the W-King H330, and Techder Audios found the Tribit Stormbox Lava clearly better in sound and build.
Buy the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus if sound quality is the priority over the price, or the Havit BassBlast Go if the price is the priority over sound quality.
If battery life is a priority, the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus is rated for 20 hours versus 12 hours for the Havit BassBlast Go.

Soundcore Boom 2 Plus: $179.99 Amazon B&H Photo Video eBay
Older model: the Soundcore Motion Boom+ (ranked lower, rated 2.9/5).
Pros: Quite a bit lighter than most of the other boombox size speakers. This speaker will likely move up as we get a good EQ tune that makes it a lot more neutral. Measured bass extension of 39Hz (-10dB).
Cons: Warm tuning meaning a rolled off treble and some upper bass boost. Reasonably deep bass, but not as good as the top ranked.

Havit BassBlast Go: $77.99 Amazon eBay
Pros: Jagist found it a strong value for a medium size boombox, with a lot of bass for its size and a good balance on the Rock EQ. Two woofers and two tweeters give true stereo from one unit, and it adds IPX6 water resistance, Bluetooth 5.3, the Havit Life app with 8 EQ presets, a 6.35mm microphone input with echo control, aux and USB playback, a small status screen, RGB lights, stereo pairing and a power bank output.
Cons: In the only side by side against a rated speaker, listeners preferred the W-King H330, and Techder Audios found the Tribit Stormbox Lava clearly better in sound and build. Vocals are weaker than rivals’, and owners report the battery drains far faster than its 12 hour rating. The evidence is thin: one comparison and a handful of listening reviews.
