Do I have an amp from the factory for the speakers?

Default Do I have an amp from the factory for the speakers?

2018 JKU sport here.
I have no subwoofer from the factory.

wondering if I have an amp or if my headunit from the factory provides the power to the speakers?
If I do have an amp, would removing it cause any computer or module issues with other systems in the Jeep?

I am not aware of any SPORT model having a Sub and an Amp. The Head Unit is powering the Speakers.

2011 JK Sahara. I had factory Infinity sound system upgrade with amp. The amp was located in the driver's foot well up under the dash. I removed it to do a complete down to the wiring upgrade. I left it's un-connected connection zip-tied up and out of the way just in case, but I have had no negative effects regarding this effecting any other modules or confusing the CAN bus at all.
