wouldn't reccommend it...either stick with the two 15's or just the one 12...try to keep your subs the same size

You should build a seperate box for each one of those subs.

You'll need to either build a passive crossover or get an active crossover to make everything work together though.

The 15s should be used to play down to ~20hz, and crossedover to the 12 at ~60~80hz. Then cross the 12 over to the mains around 500hz

Aaacckkk!  Use a tone generator and play a 500 Hz tone.  Now... do you REALLY want that to be played by a subwoofer??  And a Kicker to boot!

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Sounds like the equipment is hot... lol
Stick with the above mentioned comment of keeping speakers the same size. Go either CV or Kicker, don't mix.
