will the 1200.1 ppi amp be enough to power 3 12 inch solobarics dvc 4-ohm L7's??? if not then will 2 be enough??? any suggestions on amps is welcome so i can get the best power to those subs.

3 dvc 4ohms? How do you plan on wiring that? You wouldnt even be able to get 1ohm outta it.. you might be better off with 2 DVC4 for final load of 1ohm. (which is what most class D's put max power out at)
(note i have no idea where ppi 1200.1 puts out max power, tho im guessin 1200w at 1ohm from its model #)

subs dont handle loads. subs PRESENT loads to amps. its amps that can or cant handle loads.
3dvc4 in parallel would net you like a .66ohm load. i dont remember how to calculate it, i just remember the standards like 3 dvc6's, or 2 dvc 2/4 ohms..
sub#1 4-4 =2
sub#2 4-4 =2
sub#3 4-4 =2
they would become 2 ohms EACH in parallel. If you parallel 2 of those subs, you'd have a final of 1ohm. The third should drop you to either .5 or .66. Doesnt matter really, cuz your amp probably cant handle it.
