Wiring 3 4ohm DVC subs to 1 ohm

Well im expecting to get my Elemental Ks in the next few days. The jury is still out on wich amp to get. I can get a deal on autotek stealths and visoniks...i think im going with the autotek but its 1500 at 1 ohm. I know if i wire all 3 up in parallel it will be .67 ohm. Will that run on a 1 ohm stable amp? Anyone know any other way to wire them up? Thanks!

the lowest you can wire safely is 2 a 2.66 ohm load.
