he has three single coil 4 ohm woofers...size doesn't matter
my math for parallel wiring is right.
I don't know where you got 2 ohms from three 4 ohm speakers
I meant his amp CAN be bridged...not with the woofers wired in parallel but series (12 ohm) or two in parallel and then series with the third for a 6 ohm net load

Okay, sorry about the misinformation! My amp is 2 ohm stable stereo, 4 ohm stable mono. I have 1-4 ohm 12"svc sub and 2-4 ohm 10" svc subs. All I really needed to know if amps were capable of multi ohm loads. Meaning if I ran the two 10" subs in parallel to one channel, it would have a 2 ohm load (right?, two 4 ohm subs in parallel equal 2 ohms). I was then going to just run the 12" off of the other channel, that would give it a 4 ohm load. So, 2 ohms on one channel, and 4 ohms on the other channel. I've never tried it b4 and I was just curious about it, I know there are many other options that I could do. My amp is an older Kenwood (Kac-929, I think)

Yes it will work.  No it is not a great idea.
