    the x810 does not do 1500 or 1600 watts rms! ... last i recall it was like an 800 watt mono amp.

    if needed, the subs can be wired to 1.6 ohms instead of 1.33. this may make a 2 ohm stable amp less upset, should that become necessary. for 1.6, two are in parallel, and that setup is in series w/ the third.
