Is it worth it, Big difference?

OK guys here's the question, will it be a big difference on the meter and by ear going from 4x RE SX 12" (powered by 2x USAmps MD-3D in an 7 ft^3 tuned at 34Hz) to 4x RE MT 12" in the same box and tuning but power by (4x MD-3D thus one Amp per MT's) I assume the MT is similar to the BTL's and they recommend 1.75ft^3 per 12" BTL drivers, so it will work ok.

Will you notice a Big difference in loudness, and is it worth it the change?

and how about to 4x FI BTL 12" in the same box and the 4x MD-3D?

Anyways, thanks.

if you're competing then it might be worth it.

But I would say no because I don't give a shit about spl

I've heard a "rule of thumb" you could say that when you double your power, your score will go up 3db roughly. but changing subs and doubling power, idk. should be much louder to the ear anyways

No, not 100% competing, but very loud on music.

for Electrical, now i have 1x Ohio 230a Alt, as for batteries 1x PM D5100 front, and 2x PM D3100 in the back, and 3 runs of Power and 3 runs of Neg. 1/0 KnuKonceptz

if I switch to the MT's I'll put one more 230a Alt. and the batteries and runs of wires stay the same.

if it's not worth it on music, I'll stay with the SX's.

thanks.
