this or rp 1000sw?
If you have money, RP1000 all the way. It has deep bass and it is high excursion, you will experience the difference in high volumes. But if you just want a sub, this is a great value.

Got one yesterday, while trying to setup - I don't see a power cord which connects to the wireless transmitter (there is a one power cord which powers the sub, but not for the wireless transmitter) is it only me ? Can someone comment on what's in the box

Agreed for 90 percent of the normal audio needs this fits the need. Heck get 2 and hook them up. I fell for that expensive audio crap years ago. Bought B&WS along with SVS sub way before SVS was popular. Spent close to 3k and my wife couldn't tell a difference between the Klipsch setup I had before. The high end speakers and subs most of the time are being bought by someone that's wants to say. Hey man I got the best speakers blah blah blah.

My take.
I get it.
Not saying it's worth it, but I get it.
You need to have pure, uncompressed audio content, a killer amplifier properly tuned, and expensive speakers. And then, that 1% of all content you listen to can take advantage of what you have built.
But for 99%+ of us, if this is available in your area, this is all you need. Old man yelling at cloud, but massive subwoofers are overrated. Audio details in the higher frequencies matter more than "shaking the floor". That's not to say that you shouldn't have a decent sub. But for home use, spending more on a great set of main speakers is a better use.
Can't vouch for this wireless setup, but I tried a wireless sub in the past and had some latency issues. Sometimes the old I.T. trick of turning it off and on again fixed it. Sometimes, it just lagged. This sub has a wired connect option, which I would probably use due to the simplicity.

After listening to everyone comment on how good the RSL Speedwoofer was, I had to try it... I had been using the wired version of the Klipsch and was ready to be wowed... I got it and wasn't. I contacted RSL and they were great in walking me through how to tweak it to work best with a Denon using the Audyssey setup (they said you have to tweak settings to get max performance.) Still wasn't wowed. I really wanted to be based on everyone's comments here... but I wasn't. Ended up returning it and paying the restock fee and hooked up the wired Klipsh and got a wireless one and am happy with the decision. Maybe I have unsophisticated hearing that couldn't discern how much better the RSL was, but to me and the family, the Klipschs sounded better once tuned for gain.
With that said, the RSL folks were great and I can't recommend them highly enough if that is the route you want to go..
Which one did you buy? the RSL 10e?

Can this subwoofer be connected to a Samsung or Sony TV?
This sub can be connected to anything that has a dedicated sub out port. Looks just like an RCA cable port, but there is only one (or two, but never seen two on a TV).
