Short answer: the W-King X20. It ranks #43 of 112 boombox speakers by sound quality, rated 3.5/5, at $219.98; the B&O Beolit 20 ranks #48, rated 3.4/5, and costs $749, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The W-King X20 is the longer-running, tougher pick. A loud stereo party speaker with a large subwoofer, a 24 hour battery with power bank, and water resistance. It is rated for 24 hours of battery against 8 for the B&O Beolit 20. It is rated IPX6 against IPX4 for the B&O Beolit 20. It plays in stereo from a single unit, unlike the B&O Beolit 20. The tradeoff: Rising frequency response but upper treble rolled off, 700Hz and 1.2kHz peaks.
The B&O Beolit 20 is the lighter choice. A premium designer portable with 360 degree sound and a top that doubles as a wireless phone charger. At 6 lbs (2.7 kg) it weighs much less than the W-King X20 at 15.9 lbs (7.2 kg).
Buy the W-King X20. It is rated higher for sound quality than the B&O Beolit 20 and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
