LG XG9
Score: 84/100Rankings
The Tribit StormBox Blast is a boombox-style portable speaker delivering 90 W RMS output with IPX7 waterproofing and a 30-hour battery life. Its heavyweight design, lack of a built-in microphone, and limited codec support are notable trade-offs. Ideal for party hosts and outdoor events needing loud, rugged sound.
The LG XG9QBK XBOOM Go offers dual 4.5-inch carbon woofers, stage lighting and a rugged IP67 build with up to 24 hours of battery life, making it a strong party-ready speaker. Its heavyweight, mono sound and less-deep bass may deter users seeking lightweight stereo performance. Ideal for loud outdoor events where visual flair and endurance matter.

Professional reviewers consistently praise the StormBox Blast for its massive output, robust bass, long battery life, and rugged IPX7 build, noting the added value of the app-driven EQ and synchronized LED lights. However, they point out its heavyweight, limited low-end depth, lack of advanced codecs, and missing voice-assistant or microphone features as notable drawbacks.
Everyday users echo the experts' enthusiasm for the speaker's monster loudness, thumping bass, all-day battery, and party-ready lighting, while frequently mentioning the bulkiness, absence of deep sub-bass, and missing call functionality as common pain points.
Professional reviewers describe the LG XG9QBK as a solid, party-ready speaker with crystal-clear highs, detailed mids, and surprisingly loud bass for its driver size. They applaud its industry-leading 24-hour battery, IP67 durability, and synchronized lighting, while noting the mono output, recessed mids, and heavyweight as trade-offs. Overall, they view it as a top choice for loud, outdoor gatherings where visual flair and endurance matter more than audiophile fidelity.
Everyday owners overwhelmingly praise the speaker's powerful, crisp sound, long-lasting battery, and rugged IP67 build, often highlighting the fun stage lighting and convenient handle. The most common complaints revolve around its heft, mono sound, and a bass profile that leans toward upper-mid frequencies rather than deep sub-bass.
