Short answer: the Monoprice SW-15. It ranks #14 of 212 subwoofers by sound quality, rated 4.1/5, at $499.99; the Sigberg Audio 10D ranks #36, rated 3.9/5, and costs $4,067.37, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
Why pick the Monoprice SW-15: A big 15 inch subwoofer with powerful, punchy bass at a budget price, great for movies in a large room. The tradeoff: Budget-tier design, ported room gain dependency, 66.1 lbs (30 kg) mid-size, and limited dynamic headroom.
What the Sigberg Audio 10D does well: A small dual 10 inch sealed subwoofer whose opposed drivers cancel vibration, with parametric EQ and strong output for its size. The tradeoff: Sealed output falls to 96.0dB at 20Hz and 91.5dB at 15Hz, so it does not shake the room in the deepest octave.
Buy the Monoprice SW-15. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Sigberg Audio 10D and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
