Question Hydra Model-2 vs. Denali 2000/T

Hoping not to induce too much hysterical laughter in posing this question, I must ask: how much difference/improvement might I expect in my power amplification by migrating from my Hydra Model-2 to a Denali 2000/T? Responses from readers who have actually done this are especially welcomed.

Well, I gave up waiting for any response. This morning, I proceeded to purchase a Denali 2000/T; it should arrive sometime next week. Here's hoping I notice a difference between it and the current Hydra Model-2 and Venom Defender I am using!
