The output from the back of the deck is most likely a high level output, therefore what you are doing is trying to feed your amp 6 to 12 volts when all that it is able to handle is maybe 4 or 5 volts.
RCA's on your amp are a low level input, meaning they will only take a low level signal (.2 volts to about 5v)
The speaker output on the back of your deck will most likely be high level (at close to max deck volume, standard decks may put out 6 to 12 volts) , so in order to go straight to your amp, your amp must have a high level input.
You can purchase a high to low level adapter which will turn you high level output a low level output which will then go through RCA's and into your amp.

There might be a way to slice the RCAs but you'll need a ground. Just hook up your high level inputs as tdotluoma said. Your system should be bumpin
