Googling the question of whether to orient the Sonos 5 vertically with the tweeters in or out, the only responses I found suggested putting the tweeter on the inside. However, looking at the orientation of the Sonos logo, it is upside down in that orientation. This would seem that Sonos thinks that the tweeters should be on the outside rather than inside.
Any thoughts?
Also, I read that one tweeter is active in the vertical but all three woofers are active - presumably the tweeter can output much more decibels (volume) than the woofers can so that one is sufficient but for horizontal they have 3 tweeters for the sake of dispersion....? Love to hear thoughts on that too.
Thanks.

Can you hear any difference? If so, go with what you prefer. If not, it doesn't matter
There are too many variables in the combination of orientation and room responses to it. The only reliable way to see what works best is by experimenting to see what sounds best in the target room in the preferred placement position. Easily done with Sonos speakers. And once done, run Trueplay for the final optimisation tweak.
Thanks everyone for the replies. 🙂
