Subs are non-directional, as someone else pointed out, and bass sound waves need room to propagate. The actual direction they get "aimed" can also depend on the trunk area and shape.

My subs, while currently pointing backwards, would have been better firing upwards for no other reason than the manufacturer (Audiofrog) doesn't recommend grills. As it is, I have to be careful what I place in my trunk to avoid punching a hole in the cone.

Want another unsolicited opinion?

Peak Design has, in my opinion, a better solution than quadmount - it mounts securely (magnet + slot) and keeps the ability to wirelessly charge. Do have to use their case though, but it's a very attractive case. I use it in conjunction with the Trek BellBeats and I'm satisfied.

I'd prefer Ottawa myself. Visited last year and really loved the experience. I hate hot weather with the fire of a thousand suns (live in Austin right now). I'd love to live somewhere it's never hot. Plus my wife and I really loved the atmosphere in Canada in general.
