What's your ALL TIME Best Bluetooth Speaker?

I've cycled through a handful of speakers over the years, JBL Flip, a UE Boom, one of the cheap Anker ones, and honestly none of them ever made me go "yeah this is the one." Always something, either the bass gets muddy at higher volume, battery dies faster after a year, or it just feels replaceable.

So curious what you guys actually consider the best, like the one you'd repurchase without thinking twice.

• What's the longest you've owned a speaker and still use it over anything newer
• What actually makes it "the best" for you personally. Sound quality, durability, battery life, how it handles bass without distorting
• Anyone still rocking something 5+ years old that holds up better than newer releases
• I keep seeing the JBL Charge 6 mentioned as the "safe pick" that does everything well, is that still true or is there something better now
• Anyone actually compared the Harman Kardon Go Play 3 to Bose Soundlink Max? Curious if the HK is worth it if you're not taking it outside much
• Soundcore Boom 2 keeps coming up as a budget king, anyone run two in stereo and notice a real difference
• For tiny/ultra-portable, is the Bose Soundlink Micro still the best in that size class or has something newer taken over
• JBL Boombox 4 owners, is it actually worth it for parties/outdoor use or is that overkill for casual listening

Feels like everyone has a different answer depending on whether they care more about portability, actual sound, or just vibes/design. Trying to figure out if there's an actual consensus pick or if it's just tradeoffs no matter what.

What's yours and why has it earned that spot for you?
