Default Speaker/sub wiring help

I just got my new amp for my 07 gt that had an shaker 500 system stock, I have put a new kenwood head unit in. My stock door subs dont appear to be working right with the new head unit, So i bought a new alpine amp. Im going to hook it up for now and in a week or so i will buy new door subs. But does someone have some information on runing new wires to my subs for the new amp, that i can use? I tried to do a forums search but did not come up with much, Its been a while since I have hooked a new amp up. And another quick question, my head unit has rear and front outputs on it, Is this for adding a amp for the front and rear spearks? thanks for your time and help, much appreciated.

the amp/sub was working before you put the deck in right? Something is not connected right and adding an amp is probably alot more work then you need. I would not recomend using the stock speaker wires just because it would be difficult sort them out front to rear. Yes the RCA outputs are for and amplifier input.

im pretty sure they were working before, I have been wanting to put new speakers in anyways, so i order the shelby kicker set of subs and 4 speakers, So should I buy another amp for the 4 speaker to run through?, If so can you point me to a good one. would this work for my front and rear speakers. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113KAC6...782&tab=review

never been a fan of kickers myself. I would recomend an amp for any kickers as with out power they are just never all there. Give them as much power as I can.
