A subwoofer needs to move a lot of air so it needs to be big, 10 inches in diameter or more. I have an 18 inches subwoofer. It needs a huge enclosure and a very low resonant frequency so it can produce frequencies down to 20Hz that shakes your bones. A woofer can be from 4 inches to 8 inches in diameter and produce frequencies down to about 80Hz. If you do not have a subwoofer then bass boost can be added so a woofer that normally goes down to 60Hz can go down to 30Hz.
Mmmm thanks. But I asked it just to buy a used one from street. by the way, right now, I'm using cheap 150₹ 8" speakers. That's two dollar for a new 8" woofer. I live in india

A cheap speaker usually sounds like a cheap speaker. A cheap woofer or subwoofer will not produce low bass frequencies and a cheap tweeter will not produce high treble frequencies. Is that what you want?
Distinguish subwoofer and woofer
