    If you have access to a SPL meter and a CD burner, you can run a frequency response sweep for both configurations and see which one gives you the flattest FR with the least amount of room cancellation modes.

    Corner placement excites more room modes than any other, resulting is less nulls in the listening area. I recommend stacking in the same corner - you will get 6 dB more bass headroom, and avoid the potential problem of competing bass waves from subs in two different parts of the room, which can create standing waves with big peaks and nulls.
