I don't know the power output of the amp or the rating of the speakers, so without that I couldn't tell you if series is best. The difference you asked about is that the left and right channels are stereo, each having a distinctly different sound. Combined together, there is one sound. Since subwoofer frequencies are so low that they are "non-directional", that is, you can't tell where they are coming from, oftentimes people feed the subs a mono signal, usually by bridging a two channel amp or using a mono amp, to feed more power to the sub, or to use all the available channels of the amp.
To add: post power rating of an amp like 2 X __watts @ 4 ohms. Show speaker rating at RMS watts (and voice coil ohm rating). That keeps everything on the same page, with all the ratings being spoken of in terms of peak and max and all that...

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
It almost keeps everything on the same page, but without specified voltage and specified test frequency you can still scew the power ratings pretty bad. For the record that amp is 60x2 rms and was pretty solid in its day. If I remember right, I believe its 2 ohm mono stable as well which means that you can paralell the subs together and bridge the amp to get the most out of it. That means you take the positives off both subs and connect it to the positive terminal on the left channel of the amp and take both negatives and connect it to the right negative on the amp. Then your off and going. If the amp heats up and shuts off or if it goes into preotection when you try to set the gain, then I am wrong and you will need to do series wiring but I am pretty sure I am right on this.
