" ...  The sony speaker may have a slightly better range of sound but it also cost double and is not rugged. ... The pros are the lower cost, auxiliary input, rugged waterproof features, and the sound quality. ... The only con is the range of sound is marginally better on some of the more expensive speakers I own but for the price the sound and value exceed my expectations.  ...  "
