Default Question about OEM Subwoofer in 08 tC

Does the stock (OEM) subwoofer that comes in the 08 tC have a separate (adjustable) gain control? It's supposed to be driven by it's own 35w amp so one might hope that there is a separate gain control.

In previous OEM subs there was a **** on the sub. I don't know about the 08, but I would assume yes?

With the previous versions you had to remove the outer cover to get to the ****. But it's possible there isn't one... it's just weird.

This is the 07 subwoofer, the gain control is there under the grill panel.

^^ Ya, that's the previous version. The 08s have a "stealth" one in the floor like the RS2 and RS3 tC has.

The new oem one has a better design as far as being stealth. old old ones I believe are 10 inches tho. There should be a gain **** because a lot of people like to change out head units.
