wire two subs to one of the amps, with coils and subs in parallel for a 1 ohm load
wire the other sub to the second amp with coils in parallel for a 2 ohm load
that gives enarly equal power to all 3 subs

wire two subs to one amp at 1 ohm...sell the other 12 buy a 15 or 18 and run off the other amp......

I prefer not to mix subs that way myself
