Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus. It ranks #26 of 73 boombox speakers by sound quality; the Teufel Boomster 2021 ranks #33.
What the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus gets right: 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. The tradeoff: Warm tuning meaning a rolled off treble and some upper bass boost. Reasonably deep bass, but not as good as the top ranked.
The case for the Teufel Boomster 2021: Pretty balanced sound, slightly warm. The catch: Not as deep of bass as above ranked speakers. Boosted mid bass compensating for the lack of bass extension.
Buy the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus if sound quality matters more than the price. Buy the Teufel Boomster 2021 if the price matters more than sound quality.
