Default Which Setup Is Louder?

Which Setup Do You Think Will Be Louder? The Subs are Facing Different Angles. As You Can See One is Directly Point Towards The Glass.. The Other Option On The Other Hand Is Slanted like the Sub Thump Look Just bigger... Do You Think There Will Be A Difference In Sound Between The Two Setups? Both Setups Will Have the Same Size Speakers and are equal....

BTW SORRY FOR THE CRAPY PICS LOL!

THANKS FOR YOUR OPINION!

Setup A:

Setup B:

no difference that you can hear... if anything, only a fraction of a db that you can only pic up with a meter.

I voted towards the glass. I used to do db drags and found that the best way to hit hard it to have the subs firing toward the glass. But it will only net a few db difference. Its realy what ever you want to do and what you think looks better. The driver and passanger won't be able to hear a difference.

All depends on the type of music and what you plan on doing with the install. By placing them rearward, you can sometimes couple the soundwaves together and create a larger wave. So it will sound louder.
