yes i personally think it will be worth the upgrade. u will be adding over 1,000 watts to ur subs alone. but do u have the electrical to back over 3k in power.

My build

98 s10 2.2

3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts. (on there way here)

atomic at-3000.1 (soon) 146.2 outlaw @39hz., bad alt an bad batt when termed (old 2 12" build)

alpine 6.5s in doors

infinty 4x6s in dash.

clarion cz201 HU.

mechman 240a H/O alt

stuff i still need.

SHCA 2/0 wire

SHCA 1/0 to 2/0 adapters

Atomic AT-3000.1

Lots of sound deadner

new mids an highs, still debating on what to do.

A few Deka g31 batts.

or you can look into crescendo 3500 watt amp an tune it correctly if you are on a budget. an just turn the gain down some so u dont over power them to much. u can hit up skyhighcaraudio for some prices, or go on crescendo's website.

You will gain MAYBE 1.5 dB.

And that is a big maybe. . .

From 1000 watts to 2000 watts per sub is a 3 dB gain in theory, and a disappointment in the real world.

For reference - it would take going from 1000 watts to 10000 watts for it to sound 2x louder in a perfect world.

Current system:

1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s

Previous systems:

2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz.

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.
