I've posted this as a reply on another forum, but think this might be a better place to ask and it deserves a topic for itself. In general, I found very little information about this system so I would need a bit of help here.
My plan would be to use SL S series mostly for music in a stereo setup. Given the product is on the market for some time now. It's kind of big chunk of money I plan on throwing in these.
Do you think their DSP technology is a bit outdated nowdays or it was so good at the release time that I won't hear any lack of music today?
Any rumors LS might be ready to update their S series?
What attracts me the most is the fact they use AER i.e. there is no a single sweet spot and more than one person can enjoy the music or movie. On the other hand their very expensive models (M and D) use a different technology. They are dipoles while these have a midrange in the box and AER for the tweeter.
Could anyone compare the sound differences between the M and S for example?
Does S sound less spacious as it is not a dipole or it uses the wall very well so they sound kind of the same?
In stereo setup there are two subwoofers in the corners. Are these shakers? I do like tight and precise bass and dislike the boomy, shaky or too punchy bass.
Are the subwofers self powered with dials on them or they are simply plug & play?
My alternative at the moment would be to go with used Devialet D200 and MBL 116F instead, but LS are more wife friendly.
