Short answer: the BIC America F-12. It ranks #163 of 212 subwoofers by sound quality, rated 3.4/5, at $299; the RSL (Rogersound Labs) Speedwoofer 10E ranks #183, rated 3.3/5, and costs $339.34, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
Why pick the BIC America F-12: A budget 12 inch ported subwoofer with a long warranty for basic home theater bass. The catch: Internal cabinet resonances show up around 50 to 60Hz, and its frequency response was less linear than the better 12-inch budget subs tested alongside it.
What the RSL (Rogersound Labs) Speedwoofer 10E does well: An affordable 10 inch ported subwoofer that stays composed at high volume, a budget pick for movies. The tradeoff: The boxy cabinet skips the rounded edges of pricier subs in the lineup.
Buy the BIC America F-12. It is rated higher for sound quality than the RSL (Rogersound Labs) Speedwoofer 10E and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.
