    You cant connect RCA cables to speaker cables. They are different levels. Most manufactures use the term High level or speaker level for speaker wire, and line level, pre-amp level, or low level for RCA connections.
    If your amp has High level inputs, that is where you need to connect the wire from the rear speakers. Be prepared that the quality isn't as good as line level. The best solution is to run shielded RCA cables from the head unit to the amp.
