Hi,

I'm no boy racer and I'm not really looking at "pimping" my Passat, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a discreet Subwoofer I could have fitted - I love the 8 speaker system, but I'd like a bit more bass.....

Cheers :)

Hi James,

i know its an old thread and in the mean while you've got yurself a clarion (btw howz it going) but i was interested in knowing if you found any answers?

I just got my RCD310 replaced under warranty cover and was dreaming of getting an additional Subwoofer for that little more punch.. (I am happy with the current headunit, so dont wanna replace it)

Just not sure if you can conect an additional SubW to the RDD310's. Will i need a new Amp?

Thanks

Hi,

I did indeed get some answers - From what I found, the RCD300 (I can't speak for the 310) does not easily support a subwoofer as it does not have the neccesary (sp) outputs to easily support and drive a sub even with a new amp. You'd have to splice some feeds which is something that I myself wouldn't be too happy with - You'd have to get an ICE specialist to have a look.

My clarion, however, supports subs out of the box - I'm tempted by this:
