There are some subwoofers that make your room shake and some subwoofers that don't shake anything. If you want a subwoofer specifically to shake the walls in your room, you will need to take the following information into your consideration:
The size of the subwoofer driver cone matters, if you want a subwoofer to shake the walls in your room. The bigger the subwoofer cone, the more air it can push, which means more bass vibrations that you can feel. If you want good sounding bass with a great punch you can feel, consider you buying a subwoofer that either is 12, 15 or 18 inches.
The tuning of the subwoofer enclosure also reflects on gaining bass that pounds on your chest. The lower the tuning on a subwoofer enclosure, the more you can feel the bass instead of hearing it. For chest pounding bass you can feel for a car audio subwoofer, the ideal tuning frequency is between 30-33 Hz. For a home theater subwoofer setup, consider buying a subwoofer that is tuned to 25 Hz or lower, as this is a optimal Hz range for shaking the walls in your room, as movies tend to go below 25hz and music doesn't.
How much power the subwoofer is producing, reflects on the overall impact of shaking the walls in your room. The more rms watts your subwoofer is pushing out, the more hard the bass is going to hit, which therefore is going to move more air in your room, which will make your chest pound and make things falling off cupboards.
What are you using your subwoofer for, is it music or movies? Most music doesn't have bass frequencies that are below 30 Hz, which is the reason why some people say there walls won't shake when they play music. But if they watch a movie using the subwoofer, a movie has great potential to player lower frequencies below 25 Hz, which makes the subwoofer shake the walls more rapidly, if compared to using the same subwoofer playing music.
