I had some Kenwood db's 12" they sounded pretty good but they would distort fairley easy at mid to higher volumes. The Rockfords I haven't heard. How much power are you planning to run to them?

It's alot easier to wire two drivers than it is to wire three drivers. Unless you're looking for insane SPL, I'd go for two drivers.
