it shouldn't affect the bass you put out but it might affect what notes the sub plays.
someone correct me if i'm wrong but if you plug a sub amp into a regular outlet then your sub will not only play the notes designed for subs, but also the higher pitched tones like lyrics and such.

what model # is your deck?
it might say in the manual if one set of outputs is designed for a sub or not

make sure you turn off the hpf on your hu so it plays full range through your rear output. then set the xover on the amp for your sub.

What the hell? I posted this in here like 10 minutes ago?? Chads got you covered though

"Just set the crossovers on the amp. set the lpf at how high you want the subs to play and the subsonic at how low you want to play and you will be good."

If you set the amps LPF freq. right it will be fine. And like chad said make sure HPF on the HU is turned off.

You just won't be able to adjust sub volume on the HU without adjusting bass to the main speakers as well.

If your HU doesn't have a HPF/crossover control then it doesn't have it built in, so you don't even have to worry about it.
