Yeah that does look like it would work I think but I'm not sure if Lanzar are overrated or not.

Stay away from Lanzar unless it says Opti on it.

The JBL 1200.1 in the GTO or BP series are great amps.

the LA amp is also a good choice, but i would get the AQ 1200

the Lanzar mxa282 will do around 900w (rms).

That Visonik you linked will be about half that.

Being that you're running 3 12's the impedance of the subs will be an important factor to consider. Only dvc 6's will net a 1 ohm load on the amp. Dual 2's or single 4's will give you 1.3, dual 4's will give you .67 or 2.67.

Orion 1200d -- 1200watts RMS @ 1 ohm, Class D. Can be had on eBay for decent price. Or u can buy mine, I'll sell it for $150.
