Hi can anyone tell me where the amp is located in the coupe for the rear speakers please? Mine have stopped working and I it looks like the amp that powers the rear speakers is the reason.
Thanks
Thanks

The amp in the coupe is behind the offside rear interior quarter.
Behind the first aid pocket.
The rear speakers MAY be powered from the head unit though - not sure.

cheers m8, Had an inkling it might be there. Do you know if it's easy to get at and replace?SteviedTT said:
I thought it was the front speakers powered from the HU. The fronts are working fine it's the back that has no sound.kw_maher said:
Getting a new ICE pack fitted later this week, Is it possibel to by pass the rear amp and power the lot form the HU?
Thanks steviedtt.
No problem mate, the rear panel will have to come off to access the amp. If you've never taken one off before they're a PITA. Pull and pull till you think you're going to break it and off she'll pop :lol: As far as wirings concerned mate, ask me one on F1 :lol:
In terms of a musical set up, I'd be really surprised if Bose or Audi decided to amp the rears and not the front.oceans7 said:
It's the absolute wrong thing to do if they're interested in replicating the music as recorded.
You sit in the front right?
OK I'm a bit confused now (in know it don't take much). If my speakers in the front are working and the speakers in the back are not, is there any other possible reason why this would be the case. I.e i know on some HU it is possibel to shut down the rear and or front speakersa as required, is this soemthing that can be done on the audi concert hu?kw_maher said:In terms of a musical set up, I'd be really surprised if Bose or Audi decided to amp the rears and not the front.oceans7 said:

Seriously considered this, but then my pooch would'nt be able to get in the back.andyTT180 said:
As I've posted elsewhere the rears run through the amp and fronts direct from head. Pull head out and look at sticker. In the rear speaker section there will be a connection for a switched feed to the amp, disconnect the hu and send a 12v feed to this connection to see if the relay in the amp energises.
I have power but no sound from my 02 TT Coupe Bose system and I'm thinking it is the amp. It started happening sporadically where the sound would just cut out in the middle of a song, then come back on an hour or 2 or even a day later. Then the sound quit completely. I searched for the amp behind the driver's side panel and found a plastic box with a ton of wires and plugs but it didn't seem like an amp. It was plastic and made in Germany and had the Audi symbol on it. I would assume the Bose Amp would say Bose on it. I did not completely take the passenger side panel off, but could not see the amp there. I will look harder. If the problem is in fact my amp, can I replaced it with an after-market amp or does it have to be Bose? Also, if I go after-market with the amp, do I have to replace the radio/cd player as well? thanks
