Terrible options. The select 4 go is not loud and both that and the 3 have poor bass you won't be able to feel
I would look into Soundcore. I have their Soundcore 3 and Motion X600 bluetooth speakers, as well as their Q20i ANC headphones. They all have great sound for the price. The sound of the X600 is downright impressive. It sounds just as good if not better than speakers from other brands that are twice the price. But it is a larger unit, and at ~$120ish, idk if you are looking to spend that much. But its not super huge by any means and has a handle so it is definitely still portable and has IP water resistance. If you're looking more in the $40-$60 range and want a smaller and more portable unit that still puts out good sound and is rugged, the Soundcore 3 is a good option (or, for even less, the similar Soundcore 2, you can usually find those for ~$30). It is also IP water resistant and has a rubbery exterior, good if you know you're going to be rough with it and take it outide a lot. I have been super impressed and satisfied with all of them, not many people think of them because their stuff isn't always in the big stores and they don't have the brand recognition of others, but they are really solid products, especially for their price. They have a whole lineup of stuff to check out. Good luck and happy speaker hunting!
**UPDATE: SOLVED!** After messaging Soundcore support, they instructed me to reset the speaker by holding the Bluetooth and volume up buttons simultaneously. After completing the reset, the stereo separation is now working as expected on my Soundcore 3! If you have the same issue, try this reset procedure. ~~I recently discovered that my Soundcore 3 doesn't provide actual stereo separation despite being advertised as having stereo sound.~~
Turns out I solved the issue! After messaging Soundcore support, they instructed me to reset the speaker by holding the Bluetooth and volume up buttons simultaneously. After completing the reset, the stereo separation is now working as expected. If anyone else encounters this problem with their Soundcore 3, try this reset procedure before assuming it's defective like I did. The stereo separation is actually quite good once it's working properly!
Soundcore's best products are the Motion+, Soundcore 3, Liberty NC, and Space One. They're the best deals for what they are. Edit: There are better deals elsewhere for other products such as: I'd rather get the Tribit Stormbox Blast over the Motion Boom. JBL's though are better but their prices don't justify the price difference for comparable products.
Soundcore 3 does have stereo. It may be a setting in your device, or just the nature of small speakers like that don't have as good as separation as you may be expecting.
Just an FYI - The Soundcore 2 or 3 (newest version of the bottom one) is frequently on sale for less than $30 on Amazon. That makes Soundcore 1 (pictured) kind of a bad investment at $28.99 But all of these Soundcore (1-3) models are great budget speakers. I’ve been using mine daily for 3 or 4 years.
