Short answer: the SVS SB-3000 for accuracy, the Monoprice SSW-10 for a shallow footprint. The SB-3000’s 13-inch sealed cabinet and 800W RMS amplifier average 118.7dB with exceptional accuracy and take the #15 spot of 212, though it costs $956.01 more. The SSW-10 is an ultra-slim, 7-inch-tall sealed design averaging 108.2dB for $242.99, and that footprint is the reason to choose it: depth of cabinet, not depth of bass.
Buy the Monoprice SSW-10 if the price matters more than sound quality. Buy the SVS SB-3000 if sound quality matters more than the price.
