Depending on the RMS of each, I reccomend any amp that is 2 ohms or better when bridged. Three dual 4's will give you an impedance load of 2.3. Match the rms of all three with the amps 2 to 4 ohm rating.

I think you would like the Brutus amp. That is what I'm using and I'm very pleased with it.

what do u have your amp powering and do you think it will push my 15's to there potential. My current amp is jus not up for that challenge. It handled the audiobahn 15's i had before these kickers.
