What I have...
2002 GMC Yukon
No third row.
Pioneer DEH-X8600BS head unit
Pioneer DEH-8601 monoblock amp
Prefab ground shaker slot ported 3.7cf box
Single kicker 15" CVR DVC 4OHM
This sub is rated at 500rms
The amp is @ a 2 OHM load @ 500watts rms

This sub slams pretty good, but it's over powered and not quite doing it for me.

I have an extra pioneer DEH-8601 amp BNIB
Have been looking at replacing my kicker with a DC Audio lvl 3 15 DVC 2 OHM and running my current amp at 1 OHM @ 800watts in my current prefab box.

Eventually, adding another DC sub for two total in a custom box running both pioneer amps @ 1 OHM

Should I notice much of a difference between the single kicker at 500 watts compared to the new DC @ 800watts?

Thanks in advance.

A custom box made for those subs and what you want out of it will make the biggest change. you can have a crappy sub and a perfect box and it would sound sweet, but you could have the most badass sub and a crappy box and its going to sound crappy. and the lower ohm you go the less resistance the wire will see resulting in more power flow. not to mention that dc audio is a great company. just make sure that the amp you plan on using can handle a 1ohm load, if not you could destroy your system.
