So then yes I WOULD need to have a low impedence mod so that the only frequencies sent to the amp for the subwoofer through the RCA are lower frequencies. Correct?

i connected the wires to the blue/pink purple/teal set... and hooked everything up as normal, and im getting a lot of voice and distortion through the sub...should i have hooked the amp to the Rear Deck Right + Blue/Red
Rear Deck Right - Blue/White Rear Deck Left + Blue/Yellow Rear Deck Left - White/Green from the white (or blue?) harness instead?? could a not good ground cause that too? i need to fix my ground as well im thinking.

Eveything comes on and plays fine, it just seems like theres a lot of static and distortion still. I changed the ground spot to a better ground and the distortion went away a little bit, Im think maybe I should solder the rca cables to the harness instead of using connectors and tape...good idea? Also none of this explains why there might be voice frequencies and higher pitches coming out of the sub still... i really feel like this right now 
seeing as I go to school for electronic/computer engineering

Thanks for the help!
