What kind of crossover are you running and what is it controlling? Those answers would be of great assistance in providing you with suggestions on how to get it worked out successfully...

dont try to run the 10's and the 12 at the same time because it might blow up //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif.

Probably won't blow up, but it probably won't sound that great either. My ex had 1 12 and 2 10's in her 4runner. I didn't have the heart to tell her how lame it was.

2 10" > 1 12"

lol, That Is Weird How You Capitalized Every Word. Syncness is key when you use multiple size speakers, the head unit does it, but you'd need to manually do it for 10's 12's, im not sure why they would blow up, just don't run too many watts to them, and they won't blow, unless you fry your whole system with no fuse at the battery.

Sorry I had my caps lock on. I have two amps one for highs and one for lows. Both amps have built in crossovers and i have another crossover wired in as well. It's a DHD Power Cruiser NTX-6211 2/3 way

I have tree subs 2 10" and 1 12" JL audioo all wired together and bridged in a small sealed box. I only have a 600w amp.

My question is #1 how to set the levels on all the cross overs #2 do i need the extra crossover and #3 should the box have any holes in it. thank you so much in advance cause I dont know what the hell I am dooing.
