The big thick power cable goes from the battery to the 12v input on the amp. Obviously it has an inline fuse, which goes as close to the battery as possible.

The other thick power cable goes from the earth on the amp, to the chassis of the car. This is the earth lead, and is critical for a good, un-interfered sound.

The thin blue wire goes from the blue remote cable (blue or blue/white) on the back of the head unit to the remote terminal on the amp.

The cable with two phono plugs on the end, goes from the head unit pre out to the input on the amp.

Thats about the lot mate/madam.:D

Can i just ask what sub and amp you have? Because you may have dual voice coils, which could potentially pop the amp if wired incorrectly!
