The earlier volvo headunits used an external amp with the signal going from the tunerheadunit to the external amp and then returning to the tuner. The speaker leads then were fed from the tuner/headunit. On later models, (it changed around 90 or 91 I think, depending on the model) the external amps was still used, but the speakers were fed directly from the amp. I sounds like you probably have one of the later headunit/tuners, so you would need to get the external amp that goes with it ( it attaches to tone of those "round" connectors on the back), and then wire your speakers to it.
