Hi
Just got to the sub in the rear of my CLK and want some info from the audio experts out there.
Sub looks ok, Karmann paper cone but no rips or tears, 4 Ohm and has a left and right input into a little electronics board fastened to the back. The sub doesn't work so I assume the board is blown? Previous owner had fitted an amp in the boot and used it to power the sub. I had a spare amp already so have added this in case the old amp was the problem, but no change. My amp has the ability to run bridge for a single sub so my questions are
Can I run a single input to the sub bypassing the electronics board from my amps bridged output?
Is this sub any good or should I look for a drop in replacement?
Has anyone upgraded their sub, looks about 8 inches and mounts with 4 holes.
