Short answer: the LG Xboom Stage 301. It ranks #36 of 112 boombox speakers by sound quality, rated 3.7/5, at $229.99. The W-King X10 ranks #93, rated 2.3/5, at $80, $149.99 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The W-King X10 is the longer-running, lighter option. A cheap, waterproof stereo boombox with a very long battery, loud output and a power bank for charging your phone. It is rated for 42 hours of battery against 12 for the LG Xboom Stage 301. At 6.5 lbs (2.95 kg) it weighs much less than the LG Xboom Stage 301 at 13.7 lbs (6.2 kg). It is rated IPX6 against IPX4 for the LG Xboom Stage 301. Watch for: Heavily rolled off treble, less bass than the top ranked.
The LG Xboom Stage 301 is the better-sounding, deeper-bass pick. A wedge shaped karaoke speaker with a swappable battery and multiple standing positions. Its bass reaches about 43Hz before falling 10dB, against 52Hz for the W-King X10. It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the W-King X10 lacks. It links with other speakers (Auracast), which the W-King X10 cannot. The catch: overpriced for what it is.
Buy the LG Xboom Stage 301. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $149.99 you would save on the W-King X10 does not close the gap.
