I currently have a pair of play 1s as a stereo pair and enjoy them. I am going to repurpose them into surrounds and set up a new music pair with either one SLS or era 100s with a sub mini.
I don't really need the extra features in the era and with discount they are not that much more expensive than the SLS, however I am a bit concerned about the dual tweeter in the era as it stands to reason that the imaging would be better from a single tweeter than the two in the era 100.
I have a single era 100 and think it sounds fine but don't really notice a stereo effect. I realise that a pair of fives would probably be better for music but I'd prefer the flexibility of the 2.1 setup.
I thought that I had read that the fives shut off some tweeters in vertical position, so with fives in stereo pair and vertical is there just one tweeter per speaker working?
