You THINK?
( you need to know this stuff )

That image does not relate to your system.
That image is one single voice coil sub, on one monoblock amp at 4 ohms.
YOU are running 3 subs ( unknown voice coils ) on a 2-channel amp!

You get YOUR info by looking at the back of your subs, and the wiring.
Check to see if they are dual or single voice coils, what OHMS they are, and exactly how they are wired-up.
That will allow you to determine what your total OHM LOAD is.

A SUBWOOFER AMP is typically a CLASS D MONOBLOCK.

You cannot do a proper install of a car audio system without knowing your speaker loads. PERIOD.

So look into that, and then tell us what you find.

I did it and it doesn't say any where what king of woofer is, besides the logo and "Still Water Designs" there are 2 connectors + and - and it says 8 OHMS. Wires go all positive from each woofer together to positive on amp and all negative together to negative on amp.

Will post pictures tomorrow.
