I'm just asking questions you may need to consider since you have only given load info.
1. Have you increased the alternator size to at least 200 amps capacity?
2. 1000 watts draws about 75 amps times 2 = 150 amps and the needs of the rest of the truck lighting, heater fan or A/C at different times.
Your getting into a hairy situation that requires not only a battery upgrade but the rest of the system with it.
When 2000 watt music peaks hit you will become awhere of all this in a hurry.
Good luck.
