Lightbulb Porsche Amp in Frunk

Hey folks, in my 2001 S I have the upgraded sound system which has the AMP in the frunk. On most amps the have a few dials to change the volume output and gain etc... I was wondering if the Porsche amp has these settings and pulling the amp out to increase these settings to get more power/volume out of the speakers ?

No built-in adjustments, but if you're handy with electrics...

the amp market is a buyers market.....huge number of options that work well and are reasonably priced.

I would not personally be interested in spending lots of money for a Porsche amp.

I was hoping to replace the Porsche amp with aftermarket amp to get more power out of the speakers...
