Will JL beable to handle this?

I'm getting 3 JL 12w6's and bridge them at a 4 ohm load off a 1500 watt V12 alpine amp, can the JL's handle that much.

Well, if thats RMS, each coil would get about 250 watts a piece. As long as there is no distortion, they should handle that just fine. Most of the time your not going to be playing at max anyways, so they will be getting less watts anyways.
