JBL Boombox 3 vs Klipsch GIG XXL

For most uses, the JBL Boombox 3 is better than the Klipsch GIG XXL. It's important to remember that these speakers are intended for slightly different audiences. While the JBL is a smaller and more portable option, the Klipsch is designed for parties, so it adds RGB lights as well as microphone and guitar inputs for this use case. That said, the JBL is better built with a rating for water resistance. It has a longer battery life and more sound customization tools. It stands out thanks to its sound quality, but if you want a party speaker with all the bells and whistles, you'll want to look at the Klipsch instead.
