That's cool RJ. I use to always have subs in my cars but gave it up on the last 2 I owned. Partially because I wanted to keep my hearing. But mostly the cost =P

I already had the sub and amp all I spent was 20 bucks at Walmart for a some parts.

Regarding sound I have a bass controller knob so I can lower bass on demand. Trust me my ears cant handle too much. SO its pretty low

Those trunk hinges look pretty stout. Audi builds a good machine.

Check your RCA's.

Is the remote bass potentiometer all good ?

Hmm..... Speaker level outs are a no-no..... They add major noise and distortion. Distortion is what kills subs..... and all speakers. Any device that is in between your head unit and amp has what's called insertion loss. For example: 88dB traveling from the head unit to the amp, and then to the sub (or any speaker) hits the bass potentiometer, and then I am guessing a -3dB (decibel) loss. The amp then will have to try and re-amplify those missing 3 dB's (which are now distorted, from the loss) to try and make it sound like 88dB of sound again. (These numbers are guesses, on my part).

You are using the stock Audi head unit, I am guessing ? Are you using 4 or 8 gauge power and ground cabling for that amp ? What is the R.M.S. output of that bass amp ?

I would of yanked out the old deck, thrown a new Alpine in and wired everything my self. A lot less of a headache. None of the wire harness touched so you don't have issues later down the road plus you know where YOUR wire is connected and ran through out your car.
Why run, you will only die tired!
