What about Paralleling that to one ohm the series it to one of the one ohm coils on the d1 sub n the same to the other d2 subs n d1 coik

No ... run two matching subs and upgrade your enclosue for more volume output.

lets elaborate.... if you have 1000 watts @ 2 ohm and you run a 1 ohm and a 4 ohm even though the final is 2 ohm the lower ohm sub will get a higher percent of the power leaving the higher ohm sub with less..... it all goes back to the path of least resistance so the split will be like 30/70 causing major power issues... so no dont do it.... parallel or series this problem still exists because its ohms law

No matter how you do it, the subs will be receiving different amounts of power, as has been stated. There is NO way to EQUALLY divide the power between those three subs. Do it at your own risk

It's pretty much how many times do you have to be told something is hot before you go ahead and burn yourself. No matter how you factor it you're going to have problems. Will it play? Yes. Will you cry when you blow something? If yes then don't do it. Throwing subs in your car isnt always going to make you louder and it's definitely not the most efficient way to get loud. There's boxes out there with a single 8 louder than the audio casserole you're trying to toss together. Just something to think about.

And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle ;)

If you're so set on doing 3 subs then Fuckin go for it dude. Countless people have told you it's not going to work but fuck it, it's your money.
