buy a D class amp that is stable 1 ohm and can put out at least 600 watts RMS, wire all 3 sub in parrallel (all the + terminals together and all the - terminals together). Should give you a 1.33 ohm load. You will need to know what size box the speaker manufacturer recomends to get the most out of them. Caps do NOTHING for SPL (bass music), save your money for heavier power cables or amp.

try the 750watt rms, Hifonics Titan, Ive seen it work with three kicker cvrs, so Im guessing it'll be more than enough for your subs...its at a pretty good price too.
