[QUOTE="ahole-ic, post: 7636389, member: 619324"] Lulz would be louder. Assuming the amp actually did make double the power it could in theory give you a +3db gain. In actuality, that almost never happens. You will gain less than that. Tripling your power could be about 4.5 db or less. You must keep the voltage up when you step up amp power. This means big 3, big wire, and nice agm batteries and a bigger alternator depending on how far you go. Since you gave no specifics it's impossible to tell which, if any of these you may need.
