Short answer: neither replaces the other; the JTR Captivator 212PRO for output, the SSW-10 for a slim sealed fit. The SSW-10 is a 10-inch ultra-slim sealed sub just 7 inches tall with 150W RMS and 108.2dB average output. The JTR answers with a dual 12-inch ported cabinet and 1200W DSP amp, at $2,799 against $242.99 with a 70.5 lbs (32 kg) frame.
Buy the JTR Speakers Captivator 212PRO when sound quality outweighs the price for you, and the Monoprice SSW-10 when the price outweighs sound quality instead.
