haha I dont have time to draw a diagram but its wired how it should be. Channel 1 to the right sub and Channel 2 to the left sub

So you are using a stereo (2 channel) amplifier that is not bridged. This is not the correct way for a sub stage setup.

I have dual JBL 15's, they are dual coil 350 RMS and 1450W. Right now my amp is pushing 400RMS. For about a week I noticed that the left sub was playing quieter than the right sub. I took them out of the box and made sure everything was still working and it was fine. No voice coil problems or anything. I took my system apart and rewired it just to make sure, and they were still fucking up. I took the wires from the left sub channel and switched them around and now they are playing back to normal. I dont know what the problem was or if there still is a problem or if im not pushing enough power? any ideas?

are subs dual 4 or dual 2 ohm?

pretty sure his subs are d4 and my guess is either out of phase or different gain settings.

nowhere near right, unless you have a ton of experience, and even then not good

yup, need to.bridge that bad boy! your playing in stereo. notice how when listen to headphones sometimes you only hear music out of the left for a few seconds. then the right Comes on then left fades out. then both come on. that's what's going on with you running 2 channels

Ive tried bridging the subs to the amp but they dont seem to work when I do that

This could be your problem. Sell it and get you a mono block.
