It didn't sound any different it really didn't do any thing but just cost me a little bit more money. I clould be wrong though or i just had crappy audio equipment.

Some mono amps take their signal from the left rca input and the right one is just there for show, but most of them sum them together. The easiest way to see is to shift the balance all the way to the L and all the way to the R, if the amp sums its inputs together then with the balance at center it will be the loudest, and when at the extremes (either R or L) the sub will be 6dB quieter. If the amp only takes one of the inputs and ignores the other, then when you shift to say the L there will be no change, and when you shift to the R it will go silent, or vice versa.
