I would ask this in the audio section, But you will need an adaptor for sure.

you will need a line converter to tap into your front speakers(thats where the bass is) Basicly its a little box that you wire into the left and right sides and it has a place where your RCA cables from the amp plug in. $20 at Radio Shack.
