The only thing you need to remember about this design is that the power handling will be uneven between the woofers.

The first channel with two will split the power rating for that channel between the them and the second channel will provide full power for its channel.

So, if all three woofers are 200 watt RMS and the and the amplifier is 800x2 at 4 Ohms, then this idea would not work, as the "pioneer" woofer would end up receiving double its recommended RMS rating.

In personal experience, you get better sound from two woofers being pushed closed to RMS than you do with three woofers under-powered.
