The complex Clifford algebra $A$ of a complex, non-degenerate quadratic space $(V,q)$ of odd dimension $2k+1$ admits up to isomorphism exactly two non-trivial, irreducible and finite-dimensional representations on a complex vector space $S$. If $\Phi:A\to \mathrm{End} (S)$ represents one, then $\Phi\circ\chi$ represents the other, where $\chi: A\to A$ is the automorphism defined by $\chi(v)=-v$ for $v\in V$.
My question is now: how can one decide whether two generic (irreducible, non-zero, finite-dimensional complex) representations $\Phi_1,\Phi_2$ of $A$ belong to the same isomorphism class? From what I have seen so far, I suspect that it should have something to do with the volume element of $A$...?
