Short answer: the Soundcore Boom 2. It ranks #10 of 120 large speakers by sound quality, rated 4.5/5, at $99.99; the Loewe We. Hear Pro ranks #20, rated 4.3/5, and costs $275, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The Soundcore Boom 2 is the lighter pick. A light, waterproof large speaker with deep bass for its size, a 24 hour battery and fun lighting. At 3.7 lbs (1.68 kg) it weighs noticeably less than the Loewe We. Hear Pro at 4.9 lbs (2.2 kg). The catch: Only a single midrange driver, so you only get stereo for the tweeters.
What the Loewe We. Hear Pro does well: A true stereo speaker with excellent separation, a warm balanced midrange and furniture shaking bass at moderate volume. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Soundcore Boom 2 lacks. It keeps a wired aux input, which the Soundcore Boom 2 lacks. Watch for: It runs out of headroom quickly: above about 70% volume the bass drops away, the treble gets harsher, and near maximum there is heavy compression and clipping, so the JBL Xtreme 4, Harman Kardon Go + Play 3 and Bogasing S8 Pro Max all sound fuller and cleaner when played loud.
Buy the Soundcore Boom 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Loewe We. Hear Pro and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
