Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus, with both short of the top-ranked bass. The Soundcore is quite a bit lighter than most boombox size speakers and should move up once a good EQ tune makes it more neutral; its reasonably deep bass is not as good as the top ranked. The Teufel sounds pretty balanced and slightly warm, but its bass is not as deep as speakers ranked above it and its boosted mid bass compensates.
Buy the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus. It is rated higher for sound quality and still sold new, while the Teufel Boomster 2021 is discontinued.

The Two Speakers In Full
Soundcore Boom 2 Plus: $179.99 Amazon B&H Photo Video eBay
Older model: the Soundcore Motion Boom+ (ranked lower, rated 2.9/5).
Smaller model: the Soundcore Boom 2 (rated 4.5/5).
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.
