Short answer: the Yeahbox Sonic Boom Max 3. It ranks #59 of 112 boombox speakers by sound quality, rated 3.2/5, at $228.99. The W-King X10 ranks #93, rated 2.3/5, at $80, $148.99 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The Sonic Boom Max 3 is the bigger three-way party box. Five drivers on 200W give powerful bass and strong output, with a 111Wh battery, USB-C fast charging, an app EQ and aux, USB and microSD playback. It is less clear than stronger boomboxes, and at 16.8 lbs (7.64 kg) it is a lot heavier.
The W-King X10 is the cheap, long-running option. It claims 42 hours of battery, doubles as a power bank, and Alan Ross measured 106dB. Its treble is heavily rolled off, its bass stops around 52Hz (-10dB), and its EQ has only Indoor and Outdoor modes.
Buy the Yeahbox Sonic Boom Max 3. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $148.99 you would save on the W-King X10 does not close the gap.
