Too long didn't read - 🎬 Spoiler Alert
For this use case, both solutions service the audience and the venue. It was the convenience and portability that won the decision. We went with the two S1 Pro+ with wireless transmitters.I play in this room every week with my duo partner. We have used the L1 Pro8 and T4S and been very happy with the results.
I recently got an S1 Pro+ with two wireless transmitters, and had the older S1 Pro and third-party wireless transmitters and receivers. We were also happy with that combination.
In the end, I got another S1 Pro+ with wireless transmitters, so now we have two, and use them instead of the L1 Pro8 with T4S.
I have all models of the L1 Pro and I use the T4S and T8S with them depending on the gig. So it's not as though I have replaced the L1 Pro8 with two S1 Pro+. I still have and use everything.
Considerations

The options have the same retail cost. If you add the cost of Bose carry bags or cases for all components, the costs remain similar.

S1 Pro+ x two total carry weight is approximately 30 pounds
- (15 x 2)
