Personal preference. Two One SLs will provide better stereo separation, but a single Five is probably Sonos’ best sounding single speaker for music IMO.

And if you don’t already have an Amazon Echo device, you should probably get one Sonos One and One SL.

I’ve A-B’d my pair of Play:1’s with my Sonos 5 Gen 2, and the pair was a clear, but not overwhelming winner.  However - my Play:1’s are in a unique position that probably enhances the bass.  I’ve got them inside open-faced kitchen cabinets.

 

Recommendation:  buy a pair of One SLs from somewhere with a generous return period, set them up in the space, and then play everything you might listen to, from various genres of music to podcasts to movies over Airplay (if that’s a thing you might do.)  See if you like it.  I’m pretty confident that a pair of Ones can play well in that space, but you have to try in your own room - different furniture, flooring, and drapes can all change the sound.
