Sony SRS-XB100
Minirig 4
Although the Sony SRS-XB100 and the Minirig 4 are both small cylindrical Bluetooth speakers, they've different strengths and belong to different tiers. The Sony's upsides are its long battery life, dedicated physical controls, and an IP67 rating. You can add a second speaker of the same model for a stereo pair. However, you can't change its frequency response in its basic app. In contrast, the Minirig is made from premium materials, though its IP rating is lower. You can also link it to other speakers via a wired or Bluetooth connection with up to four speakers. It compresses less at max volume with a more balanced frequency response, and there are bass and treble sliders in the app.
