Brad;
you skidmark...lol
you finally made it on here.
everyone has already said that the 3 sub idea might put an odd load on your amp.
Why not try posting what your amp is and what you are looking for that way ppl will know what kind of set up your amp can handle.
Without knowing the specs of your amp no one can tell you if it can handle the load of 3 10" subs.
There i am done now .....had to rib you a little.
Be nice to my life long friend guys he is new at this.

Talking

3 8ohm subs will give you a 2.66ohm net load wired in parallel....any 2ohm mono stable amp will drive them no problem.....

No matter what amp you're running, you might want to get some subs that do well in a ported or bandpass enclosure, no??

Personally I wouldn't recommend a bandpass enclosure to anybody new to the hobby....why start them off with an enclosure type that does such weird things to the sound?....hehehe
