      I suspect the wired cabling would be to control components inside the sub, not outside. And I say that only because it’s unlikely that wireless signals would penetrate the sub walls.

          “That doesn’t explain why they used the wireless version of that Logitech instead of wired to control the thing they were literally inside.”

        Have you seen pictures of the sub? What makes you think the wiring was all hidden?
