A subwoofer is a speaker that delivers lower frequencies in the range of 20 -200Hz, the low frequencies are produced by instruments such as pipe organs, bass guitars, even the kick drums, and any explosive sound effects say in a movie. Devices that have a subwoofer inbuilt give a richer bass sound when listening to bass-heavy music like hip hop.
Both the Denon Home 150 and Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 have a subwoofer
Size Of Subwoofer

Driver Unit Size

25mm
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 120mm
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 driver unit is 120mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
Denon Home 150 driver unit is 25mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 by 95mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty reproducing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound.
Drivers Count

Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 1only
A speaker driver is an individual transducer that converts electrical energy to sound waves. Drivers come in different sizes and modes, but generally, you'll find three types: tweeter driver, which handles the high-frequency treble range (above 2,000 Hz), and midrange driver: which handles the midrange frequencies (200 Hz to 2,000 Hz). Woofer driver: handles the low-frequency bass range (below 200 Hz).
Based on the frequencies they handle more drivers may result in better sound quality, Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 has 1 only.

Has A Passive Radiator

A passive radiator is a type of driver in speakers that can get extra power and resonance from a speaker system, usually used in smaller speaker systems. This radiator is called passive because it is not powered by electricity but by air pressure found in speaker cones.
The sound vibrations produced by a passive radiator depend on its mass and the size of its enclosure. It is usually used in combination with a woofer to produce deep, resonant tones that would normally be produced by speakers in large boxes powered by AC.
Snr - Signal To Noise Ratio
Denon Home 150
✗
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 80dB
The signal-to-noise ratio is a measure that compares the meaningful sound a speaker produces to the level of noise produced by internal components of that speaker, the higher the number the less perceived noise. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 has an audio signal level of 80 dB higher than the level of noise.
Audio Output Power
Denon Home 150
✗
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 50W
The audio output power of a device is based on the number of speakers and their power in watts Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 has 50W, this is the amount of power the speakers can be loaded with "comfortably".
A higher audio output power results in louder, clearer sounds though this is not the sole factor determining the device's loudness. To get a better understanding of how loud any speaker can get, there are other aspects to look at such as sensitivity, sound pressure, etc.
Lowest Frequency
Denon Home 150
✗
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 50Hz
Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5's lowest frequency is at 50Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
Highest Frequency
Denon Home 150
✗
Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5 20,000Hz
High frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on the way through. Harman Kardon Onyx Studio 5's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
