Default RCAs and amp help

I am hooking up a 2 channel amp to drive 2 pioneer subs. I have a panasonic deck with front and rear preout. The amp have 1 set input and 1 set output. Question is do I plug the RCAs to the front or rear preout? Thanks

Yea the problem with adding the sub amp to the front or rear output, I believe that your fading option will hindered. But I did read this on Panasonic's site...

"In addition, a non-fading, low impedance subwoofer output is available to make adding a dedicated subwoofer amplifier to your system easy."

I dont know what they mean by "is available", but using the non-fade preout is the way to go.

No. I dont think that model comes with a non-fade. Only a front and rear. It just says that preout "is avail"...whatever that means. But yea, between the front and rear, use the rear.
