basically i recieved my mtx road thunder 12 inch active sub today and i went out and purchased an 8 gauge wiring kit

the power cable is fitted to the battery safely, very fiddley and also the ground cable is made secure, the blue cable which goes from the sub to the head unit (the remote cable or something :S)

thats all fine but now i can't figure out how to fit the other cable which sends the 'music' to the sub,

there are some pictures of the back of the cd player


im also not sure on what cable to use, either the red and black cable (the big blue one which looks like something you plug into tv) or the purpley cable (picture is uploaded), but if it is the purpley then how do i go about connecting it to the sub and the back of the cd player?

there are also some pictures of the back of the mtx subwoofer to show you the connections

all help is appreciated

i cant remember off the top of my head, i tried plugging it into those but still no sound
 
Use rear out then. Its deffinately those connections.

You have no sound for another reason, it won't be the RCa cable.

Are you sure there is power going to the sub? Is there a light to indicate that its on?
