Is your center console going to be sealed or ported?

3 cubes would be good for a sealed 15 or a ported 12.

The Fi BTL is a SPL driver made to be ported. I think the Q would be a better choice.

Just to let you know, the BTL isn't only SPL.
You can choose which application you'll be using when you order them.

As for only having 3 cubes, I'd go for one of their, Fis, 15, it's at the bottom range of the suggested ported volume, but you could do it.

1kW at 1 Ohm, right?
That'll put you at one half of the RMS, it'll be fine till you upgrade your amp.
