Short answer: the Tronsmart Bang 2. It ranks #56 of 126 large speakers by sound quality, rated 3.6/5, at $109.99; the Tronsmart Force Max ranks #91, rated 3.0/5, and costs $119.99, so there is little reason to consider the other one.
The Tronsmart Bang 2 is the better-sounding, longer-running pick. A loud party speaker whose bass holds up at high volume, with water resistance, a long battery, app EQ and a shoulder strap. It is rated for 26 hours of battery against 13 for the Tronsmart Force Max. The tradeoff: Verdicts against the Soundcore Boom 2 and the Tribit Stormbox Lava were split: Dominik Reviews preferred the Soundcore Boom 2, and several listeners found the Bang 2’s mids muffled and its highs subdued without custom EQ.
What the Tronsmart Force Max does well: A waterproof party speaker that spreads sound in all directions, with power bank charging and plenty of playback options. Watch for: Sonido Pesado found the Tronsmart Halo 100 clearly better, with clearer mids and highs.
Buy the Tronsmart Bang 2. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Tronsmart Force Max and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
