Im getting 3 12's and powering them with 350 rms each
considering the following
AA assassins
alpine type r
treo tsi
kicker cvr

would really appreciate all opinions and any pros and cons that can be given.

would prefer a mixture between sq and spl, but at the end of the day i just want them to slam.
thanks for your help gentelman

the problem with 3 sub setups is that u end up with a fraction in ohms load

see this http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp

& its kinda difficult 2 get a suitable amp

IMO - y don't u get 2 better subs rather than 3 ok subs !?........

If you have room for a 15, or 2 15's, git-r-done!

Try 2 15" Treo's, Chad and B both somehow fit 2 of them in their trunk cars...

If i were you. I whould skip those subs and go with:

3 JL 12w6AE's or 12w6v1's / both the same sub with one being the anniversary edition since these subs were so nice.

They are all dual 6 ohm so you can have 3 of them wired down to 4 ohm to match the amp or at 1 ohm

Each sub is rated at 300rms and are very efficiant. You can find them at www.woofersetc.com or on ebay. Good Luck

Option 1 (parallel/parallel) = 1 ohm load
Voice coils wired in parallel, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 1 ohm mono


Option 2 (series/parallel) = 4 ohm load
Voice coils wired in series, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 4, 2, or 1 ohm mono
