This is arguably the best budget subwoofer under $500 on the market by a wide margin.

Gets back its original release price back in 2024, before all the tariff-driven and oil-war inflation kicked in.

Community Reviews

The Speedwoofer 10e comes across as a strong value ported sub for small offices, 2.1 desktop setups, and modest home theater rooms, with enough output to pair well with bookshelf speakers and even support a second sub later. It is praised for punchy, weighty bass, good music performance, and a wider, smoother response than some sealed rivals, while RSL's customer service and resale value add to the appeal. The main tradeoffs are its large footprint for a 10 inch driver, limited deep bass below about 26 hertz, and no Bluetooth. A solid fit when space and ultra low bass are not the priority.

Being ported not sealed = much more output, and a more weighty character to the bass.

btw, you can add wireless capability to the 10e with this kit: https://rslspeakers.com/products/...er-12s-10e

Thinking about selling the SB3000 to fund 2 of these for the living room tbh.
That would be a very smart move.
Heck, even SVS agrees with you: 😁

I'd choose the SB1000 only if you are under extreme WAF pressure to have something tiny, or if your usage is predominantly MUSIC (and I mean undistracted music listening, not casual background listening) not movies and if you are in a small enclosed room, e.g. 12 x 14' --- otherwise I'd take the higher output of a vented sub any day. Particularly if you're in an open-plan layout.

OTOH, you can get a FIFTEEN inch sealed sub from Starke Sound for the same price as the SB1000, with 475watts:
https://starkesound.com/collectio...ducts/sw15
One key general indicator of quality in both subs and amps/receiver is WEIGHT. That Starke weighs 55lbs, vs just 26lbs for the SB1000 Pro. The 10e is in the middle, at 38lbs.

Just ordered 3 to go with the 3 sets of Kef speakers from the killer costco clearance.. should be am awesome pairing.....
Good move---those KEF bookshelves are notoriously weak on bass, so good subs are essential.

2 is better than 1. You can tune them to fill all the frequencies of your room and blend the bass together for uniform sound.

Just got sb1000 pro. Love it. General use. Not enough of an audiophile to get into nuances.

12 or bust. Worth it imho.
I really depends on your needs and room.
The 12 will overwhelm a small room.
In medium sized rooms and even larger room where you value evenness I'd go with 2 (or 3) 10's over 1, 12".
Far better coverage for multiple seats and will even out room modes and SBIR (peaks and nulls) when placed well in the space.

If you have a larger space and need high SPL then yes multiple 12's, at least 2. 1 sub cannot provide the evenness and therefore accuracy that 2 or 3 or even 4 in different locations can.

My primary use is listening to music, and the room is small, not an open plan.

Ok, then you'd be happy with either the 10e or the SB1000 Pro. Just a question of whether you want to pay $300 or $600.
