I have had season tickets to both A&M and LSU in recent years (LSU family) so I feel like I am a pretty good judge. Both venues are amazing.
The architecture of Kyle obviously loses noise, however the noise on the field is much higher than you can tell from the upper decks or the south end of the stadium. Enclosing it would obviously help, but the field noise is still incredibly loud. The LSU players seemed to be struggling from my vantage point which is right behind them in 142. The renovation/rebuild will address that I assume.
As for maximum noise levels, Death Valley can definitely get louder by virtue of its design along with a generally drunker crowd. I see more people willing to scream with zero inhibitions at LSU which adds a lot of noise. However, I also see a lot of people who don't know when to be loud versus being quiet. A&M fans are more organized in how to generate noise (I am not referencing yells which are not done during plays) and when to make it. Also, Kyle is more consistently loud than Death Valley through the course of a game.
Both bases have a lot to be proud of regarding the energy of their venue. They are different but both are intimidating and fun. Both have great bands that add to the atmosphere.

Exactly why Johnny Interception had to ask your home crowd to STFU before going three and out and missing a FG.
