    Woofer is the term commonly used for a loudspeaker driver designed to produce low frequency sounds typically from around 40 hertz up to about a kilohertz whereas a subwoofer is a woofer a complete loudspeaker dedicated to the reproduction of bass audio frequencies from perhaps 50 hz as far as 20 Hz or in rare cases lower😉

    subwoofers are stereo bass producing speakers that takes 2 positive inputs and a negative input...dual coil.. there frequence range is lower then to normal woofer, also, subwoofer are specified,not to produce anysound above there limitations, so u cannt usually listen voices or any type of music from them.

    woofer are ist of all mono.. 1 positive & negative input... single coil... can produce frequency out of there limited range....

    i have had a long relation with audio systems since i was in 10 standerd,
    i have made alot of speaker myself.... buying the skeleton and putting on the coils,daiphrame,spiders etc in them , adjusting the frequency level by coil position....
