Short answer: the Tribit Xsound Mega, for the deepest bass of any medium size speaker. The Maxsound Plus/Thunderbox Plus needs Xbass mode for its flattest frequency response and is slightly less deep than the best in the category, while the Mega is a single driver and not stereo. Choose the Mega for bass depth, and the flatter Maxsound Plus/Thunderbox Plus if tuning matters more.
Buy the Tribit Xsound Mega or the Tribit Maxsound Plus, whichever you find used in better condition; both are discontinued. For a new speaker, start with the Earfun Uboom L instead.
