2 Questions

first question i have is i was thinking of running 3 12w3v3s off my alpine 1000 watt mono block. i was gonna get 8 ohm versions and wire it to 2 ohms to get full power from the amp. i was looking at the jl website and it had a comparison saying that a 13w3v3 moves 50% more air than a 12w3v3 so it would appear that 2 13s would move the same amount of air as the 3 12s. is this correct and if so does this mean the output would be the same. if so i might be better running the 2 13s 4 ohm versions because it would require less power than the 3 12s and leave me with a little more headroom. both the 12s and 13s are rated at 300 rms so 3 12s would need 900 watts and the 2 13s only 600?

second question is with this substage and a set or jl zr 6.5s in kick panels would there be a large improvement running a 8w3v2 in each door in a .5 cubic foot sealed box?? what i mean is if i was to be running with the 8s turned off then turned them on would i hear a large diffrance??
