Short answer: the Soundcore Rave Neo 2. It ranks #21 of 120 large speakers by sound quality, rated 4.2/5, at $84.99; the Mee Audio PartySPKR ranks #32, rated 4.1/5, and costs $169.99, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The Soundcore Rave Neo 2 is the deeper-bass, longer-running choice. An affordable waterproof party speaker with loud output, solid bass, a long battery, lights and linking with many speakers. Its bass reaches about 44Hz before falling 10dB, against 50Hz for the Mee Audio PartySPKR. It is rated for 18 hours of battery against 12 for the Mee Audio PartySPKR. The catch: Slight treble rolloff.
The Mee Audio PartySPKR is the lighter option. A stereo party speaker with good sound, real bass, lights, sound modes and weather resistance. At 6.3 lbs (2.85 kg) it weighs noticeably less than the Soundcore Rave Neo 2 at 7.9 lbs (3.6 kg). The catch: Not very deep bass.
Buy the Soundcore Rave Neo 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Mee Audio PartySPKR and costs less, so it is the default pick unless a specific strength of the other one matters more to you.
