daisy chain the amps, use splitters, or use an external electronic crossover.

plenty of power
those amps have rca outputs so I would just daisy chain them as GW suggested. Rca's in to 1st amp, 1st amp out to 2nd amp, 2nd amp out to 3rd.

I'm just wondering here but -
if each of those subs are 400 wrms then buy a phoenix gold xenon 1200 amp which does 1200 wrms between 1-4ohms - this might be the easiest solution by using this 1 amp alone & the cost of it would = 3 of those ABahn amps ......
