Default want to add powered subwoofer to 2017 A4 Premium

I'm enjoying my new (to me) 2017 A4 Premium. That said, I am not enjoying the audio quality. I bought an MTX 8" powered subwoofer tube. I found the stock amp in the trunk, but have been unable to locate any sort of wiring diagram online. Does anyone know where to tap for the audio feed and the turn-on lead?
Thank you

There is no remote turn on lead... the factory amp is triggered by a fibre optic (MOST) lead.
You will need to run a trigger cable from a switched fuse in your vehicle.
Here's the leads for the factory B&O amplifier:
