Default What will sound better?

I have an Alpine T503 Amp which puts out 300Watts RMS at 4ohms at 14.4 volts currently hooked up to a JL10W3 D4. The sub is wired in series so the amp sees 8 ohms.
I can buy an Infinity Perfect 10.1, and wire that in at 4 ohms.

Will there be a big difference? How much power is going to my sub right now?

Default If the amp is seeing 8ohm it is putting out ~150w RMS(if your specs are correct) and will send 300w

to the Infinity Perfect at 4ohm.

The Perfect at 4ohm/300w will sound better and louder.

What does the D4 mean about your JL sub?

Dual Voice Coil with each at 4ohms. If it's DVC, does that mean it's seeing 300W?
