Depends - loads of those Blutooth speakers have 2" bass drivers, so the best they'll ever do is sound crap. Now granted plenty of cheapie boomboxes had lots of rattly plastic around the 8" woofer, and given a bit of volume sound like they're falling apart, or there's a bag of bolts in a washing machine. Yet there was a decent selection from the likes of Hitachi, Sony and Grundig and possibly others that were more mini hifi with handle and detachable hifi(ish) speakers you could separate properly. It's where the whole bookshelf hifi thing started as far as I can tell. Course you may still hate the kid's music taste. :)
