Yes, you run 1pair or RCA's from the HU to the "input" on one mono amp. Then you go from the "output" of said amp to the "input" of the other mono. Wire your +, - , speaker leads and remote and you are good to go.

Its generally a rule of thumb to run RCAs and speaker wires down one side and power wires down the other (remote turn on would go with the power wires but it doesnt really matter much). Sometimes running them on different sides can't be avoided (well unless you wanna run like twice as much speaker wire).

And by earthing I think you mean grounding, I guess you call it that in England. You COULD run it to a distro block but there's not much of a point (waste of money too). Just ground them all to the same nut on your chassis.
