It's not a lazy move ... I bring the both units anyway, it's just that in the rooms I play, with the noise level and the acoustical properties, the stereo creates more issues than glory. There is a definite lack of detail due to overlapping frequencies. The simple fact is ... the Bose works TOO well by itself to just set up another one and expect it to be better. If the room allowed alternate placement, and the natural reverberation was different ... maybe it'd work, but for this stage, with this gear,, amplifying this entertainer ... stereo is too much of a good thing. More conventional speakers may handle this better, but I stand by my statements. I can fill any room I play more efficiently, and with a more detailed sound when I use the config I described.
When I use my QSC's ... I go the L&R pan route, but not with my go to system.
'sall guuuuud.
