What about the 8" sub? The A wire is red and the B wire is black. Is B still positive? If on all of the other speakers are B, then B should be positive on it too no matter what color, right?

You can't replace that sub with an aftermarket sub. If you use a factory harness behind the radio, connect the blue wire and it turn on your factory amp which powers this sub.
