Yeah. To the lay person it seems strange to have two subs only being powered by one (mono) channel. When the subs are wired, only a single positive and a single negative wire come out of the configuration. The positive and negative wires are then connected to the mono amp's negative and positive terminals.

I know it's kinda confusing. The JL Audio page helps.
