Burmester 3D Rear Subwoofer

Wondering if anyone has the size for the subwoofer in the 3D Burmester which is in the boot. Want to replace it with a more powerful subwoofer since the current one isn't that powerful in my opinion.

Had an installer say it looked like a 8 just by looking at the grill. Will probably open it up to take a look see soon. I'm thinking about removing it all together and building an enclosure up against the rear seats. But every time I add subs to a new car, I'm hunting and damping vibrating panels/trim for months and it's getting old.

It sounds like there is one in the front center console, there sure is some low end up there.

The S550 uses a pair of Subs in the front firewall under the dash.

I would be very interested to hear what you all do when replacing the sub. Will you re-power as well? Please post details after your work is complete. I may follow the leader on this one.

Anyone changed the rear subwoofer yet? The subwoofer I was going to use was too "heavy" so yeah.
