Personally I would wire these subs each in series first to make each driver a 4 ohm load, then would parallel them all together to create a 1.33 ohm mono load, so yes it can be done. This is probaly the least confusing way to wire these subs.

isn't that amp auto ranging for the ohm load? if so, just parallel all three woofs down to the amp.

do it right the first time....less warranty work=more money!:)
