P38 Harmon Kardon sub box

2001 P38 with Harmon Kardon sound system.

The sub box seems to distort at fairly low volume and generally spoils the sound.  Both speaker cones are in good order and not split but are they the most likely cause of the issue or is it more likely to be the little amp attached to the box?  I've unplugged it for now but would like to sort it out, does anyone know off the top of their head what diameter the speakers are so i can have a look for replacements?

Thanks

Dave

Ok, so i've looked at prices for new 6.5" subs and replacement used amplifiers and they're not cheap.  A little while back i fitted one of these: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kenwood-KSC-SW11-Compact-Under-Seat-150W-Active-Amplified-Powered-Subwoofer-Sub/171165909764?hash=item27da488304:g:MasAAOSw~gRVjTAd

to my Discovery and i'm really very impressed with it.  I'm quite tempted to remove the entire sub box and replace it with the compact sub which would also give me a bit of storage space in the left hand side of the boot which would be nice.   Does anybody have a link to a wiring diagram for the sub box to save me downloading rave?
