Looking at running 3 10" subs behind the seat of my 03 cclb.

jl audio 10wxv2
pioneer shallow mount
diamond audio d1's

diamond d363
alpine type sps-600c
boston sc60

Already have boston sr80 in the front but was going to put them in the back and put components up front. Looking for options on subs and front door speakers thanks

Take a look at the jl w3s. 2 of them back there would sound great. I've got one in my 02, and two in my 08. Really happy with both setups.
I'd put the Boston sc60 component set up front

For the subs if you put 3 on the same power as 2 you won't gain much if anything, now if you do 3 and feed them full power you will be ahead, but more isn't always better. Plus proper airspace is key also.

Also 10's vs 12's the only difference will come with the larger subs being able to play lower with more authority (f3 stat on the T/S specs) Don't believe the hype of smaller subs being tighter or faster, while larger subs are sloppier.

When comparing 3x 10's vs 2x 12's you will only be gaining 2in^2 of cone area by going with the 3 tens over the pair of 12's which will be negligible at best. I would run the 2 12's and be done with it, probable spend less money, and makes the wiring situation easier.
