Remove the woofer from the enclosure, there should be 2 sets of wires going to the woofer.  Each pair of wires has a wire with a black stripe on it.  That is the negative wire of that pair.  Purchase a simple Line Out Converter, wire it to those wires and run the RCA cable from there to your new amp.  If there is only one set of wires going to the woofer, wire both the grey and white pairs of wires of the LOC to the set of wires that went to the woofer.
