Tap from the input to the Bose power amp and connect RCA type connectors to the input or the amp driving the sub. Do not use line converters.

i tried it both ways, you should use a loc, i got bad engine noise tapping before the amp, and the signal is much stronger after it goes throught the bose amp, besides it is in the same place in the trunk, and tapping in behind (and getting to) the head unit blowz!!!!
