Teufel Rockster Cross vs Sonos Move

Short answer: the Teufel Rockster Cross, on stereo and midrange focus. The Sonos Move is warm with somewhat rolled-off treble, but it is not stereo and its bass is not as deep as others in the category, with less extension than an Xtreme 2. The Rockster Cross is pretty neutral and more vocal and midrange-focused than a JBL Xtreme 4, though its Outdoor mode can sound harsh from a 4kHz peak.

Buy the Teufel Rockster Cross. It is rated higher for sound quality and still sold new, while the Sonos Move is discontinued.

The Two Speakers In Full

Teufel Rockster Cross: $249.99 Amazon eBay

Newer model: the Teufel Rockster Cross 2, ranked higher, rated 4.2/5.

Pros: Pretty neutral frequency response. More vocal/midrange-focused than the JBL Xtreme 4, thanks to a larger mid/bass driver: better suited to rock and jazz. Nicer upper-bass detail than the JBL Xtreme 4. Punchy, well-controlled bass that suits rock music, unlike the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus’s overboosted, uncontrolled bass even at stock tuning. Clear, detailed audio with good vocal presence and solid Bluetooth codec support even a couple years after release. Measured bass extension of 51Hz (-10dB).

Cons: Outdoor mode can sound somewhat harsh due to the 4kHz peak. Not as deep or full-sounding in the bass as the JBL Xtreme 4.

Sonos Move: $292.22 Discontinued Amazon eBay

Newer model: the Sonos Move 2, ranked higher, rated 4.1/5.

Pros: A well-integrated Sonos portable that combines Wi-Fi multiroom playback, Bluetooth, automatic Trueplay room tuning and a charging base in a sturdy carryable enclosure. Reviews praise its broad, full-bodied sound, warm tonal balance and weightier bass than smaller Sonos speakers, particularly at normal indoor listening levels. Measured bass extension of 49Hz (-10dB).

Cons: It is mono, heavy and less portable than a conventional Bluetooth speaker, while bass pumping and compression become audible at high volume. Deep bass and maximum output trail the strongest speakers in its size class, and the rolled-off treble sacrifices some air and detail. It is discontinued in favor of Move 2, so buy used with battery condition in mind.
