when you run all three 12ohm subs together it drops them into a 4ohm load
I had a 10" Pioneer 400w (4ohm). It required 1 ft^3 to get it's recommended range. I had 2 6x9's already back there, so I'm not sure how far back the seat is, but I do know that if you have 8" from the back, you can use my diagram. Now, mind you, I needed 1 cube, MTX's subs usually need less. Research my boy! Also, get this program.... WinISD. It's a very nice program.
Here they are.

i feel bad for that guy he got 8s for his comfort but easily could have gotten 10sya know but i would get one ten and put it on the passenger side
Ive got a box with a 10" sub and a 300 watt amp in it behind my seat and its all the way back.
Its a box originally made for 2 8" subs that was cut bigger for the sub and cut up for the amp.
Its got decent bass. Jensen amp and Lightning Audio sub (blew my Rockford and just got a cheap sub).

Just make sure your subs work well in a small (probably sealed) enclosure.
The box has the PROPER amount of space(only use baffling to cheat if you must).
Get a good clean amp w/ X-over.
Give your amp ample power..good ground(important) and power wire with fuse.
Don't over drive your shiznit.
I have heard single 10's done properly sound SOOO much more powerful than multiple high dollar subs in poorly designed/matched boxes.
Don't be afraid of 8's. They can be awesome in the right setup. Hell, a lot home subs use 6.5's and 8's and fill a house with bass.
10's will work and one, believe it or not, may be enough if it done properly.
I have seen 12's.......most sounded like hell.
--- I use to get off on bangin' a single 10 and people asking what I had...."a 10" I would say. "10's, no way they sound like 12's"....."no, A 10!"...."shit, let me see".
Of course, this was after I went through an "all out:02redxbla " stage that it kind of sounds like you are getting into and that's cool. enjoy.
One more thing...DON'T NEGLECT THE MIDS AND HIGHS. I am sure you weren't going to.
And thanks GCountach for the info on WinISD. I was wonder when a "good" freeware speaker design program would come out(of course I haven't looked for a long time). I am going to check it out.
