Is there any noticeable performance difference between 1 ohm and 4 ohm loads at...

...the same wattage? I have two DVC subs and two different amps I'm looking at using. They are 2 ohms per coil so I can either wire each to 1 or 4 ohms as parallel / series. Currently the amp I'm using is running only 35 watts / channel into two 800 watt max subs at 4 ohms, so needless to say I'm ready to upgrade. (It still shakes the cabin, btw). I have one amp which is rated at 1 ohm and another which is rated at 4 ohms, so is there really any difference between the two, power / performance wise?
