Ok,
I don't exactly have the specs of these speakers. Three 10" speakers. All three are old school, two Pyle Pro and one Kaption speaker.

I'm planning/thinking these are to run in parallel in the box, with a Pheonix Gold Sapphire (SA 3.0) bridged. Head unit, nothing special, Blaupunkt RPD-550.

I Googled some specs on the amp and found:

4 ohms @ 12/13,8 V 75/100 watts RMS
2 ohms @ 12/13,8 V 110/150 watts RMS
bridge at 4 ohms @ 12/13,8 V 220/300 watts RMS

Not really sure what to ask or what I may need to know. Port the box most likely, single port I shall assume? Car is a 2003 Honda Civic sedan.

Just gotta buy a couple sheets of MDF now.

mixing woofers in general isnt the greatest idea
mixing woofers in a shared chamber enclosure is an even worse idea.
you might just wanna run the 2 pyle woofers on each channel of the amp

Kaption b4 pyle, c'mon now....sound better to bridge to the kaption!

Besides what jalat said about mixing subs, if they are all 4ohm woofers that amp won't run them all parallel.

I would make a ported box for the kaption, bridge te amp to it, that way you will utilize all the power that amp will produce.
I am assuming the kaption sub is single 4 ohm?

Thanks guys. So mainly an issue that amp probably not enough power to handle the three?

mmmm .... No ...."So mainly the issue" is mixing subs, sharing common air space, limited wiring configurations ... that's a start ....

Hmm, ok, let's say if they are three matching (4Ohm) 10" speakers. Seems best option if I wire them series-parallel, so it would put 4Ohm to the amp. I could hook it up to amp bridged in this scenario.

Other option is wiring them parallel, which brings the speakers to amp at around 1.5Ohm however, which I guess wouldn't work hooking up bridged, but could possibly hook up to single speaker out. But could be alot of load on amp?

Just trying to figure out (even if I can't possibly do it) what scenario would work with three 4Ohm speakers.

I think, after some reading, I've answered my own question. Three in parallel i s best option, but of course does matter what the amp can/will handle. (at least that's what I'm finding about three speakers hooked up)

Your amp will fry..........period

With what you have for equiptment the best, and probably the one that will yeild best results is to bridge the sub to the kaption. You will get plenty of bass, more woofers isnt always better. expecially when your talking about pyle......= pyleoshit
