1. Will the 23-200 hz RW-12 vs the 20-200 hz HD-Sub12 is the lower 3 hz gonna be a big difference in what I hear and experience?

2. Are these Subs accurate? Are the muddy? I mostly watch BD's with music being about 10% of the time, would either one be better?

3. In a room the where the size measures approx 13W x 16L with the width to my front and back and the length is right to left, how much wattage would I really need from a Sub?

Thanks.

EDIT: didn't see your post.

1. No, the 3Hz is meaningless.
2. The HD Sub has high sensitivity with a high powered amplifier. It can get very loud. There is no doubt that it will make your movies more satifying. It is also very attractive. I only heard the 8" version of the down-firing one. It was pretty impressive for its size. I assume the 12" version is even more powerful. They are not the most musical and greatest subs on earth, but they are good value. Just a plate subwoofer amplifier can cost more than $200. A good 12" driver is between $100 to $200 and a box can cost you $100+-.
3. Either sub will make you happy. Placement of the sub is more important than the power.
