Short answer: the W-King D20. It ranks #41 of 113 boombox speakers by sound quality (rated 3.6/5) at $193 and is still sold new; the Soundcore Rave Party 2 ranks #64 (rated 3.1/5) and is discontinued, so it is only an option used.
The W-King D20 is the better-sounding, longer-running pick. A loud stereo party speaker with two wireless microphones, a 24 hour battery and water resistance. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 16 for the Soundcore Rave Party 2. It is rated IPX6 against IPX4 for the Soundcore Rave Party 2. The tradeoff: Rising frequency response but upper treble rolled off, 700Hz and 1.2kHz peaks.
The Soundcore Rave Party 2 is the lighter option. A stereo party speaker with LED lights, a karaoke mic input and linking for up to 100 speakers. At 10.1 lbs (4.6 kg) it weighs noticeably less than the W-King D20 at 14.3 lbs (6.5 kg). It links with other speakers (PartyCast 2.0 up to 100 speakers), which the W-King D20 cannot. The catch: Only IPX4 splash resistance, and bass extension seems limited.
Buy the W-King D20. It is rated higher for sound quality; the Soundcore Rave Party 2 is no longer sold new.
