When listening to stereo, we initially have 4 images to deal with. Th right speaker to the right ear, the right speaker to the left ear, the left speaker to the right ear and the left speaker to the left ear. Broader images can be made when we “cancel” the cross talk. Most of the attempts to do so had such serious problems elsewhere that the experiment could not be considered valid.
We can at least partly “cancel” cross talk. Polk Audio did this acoustically many years ago. Bob Carver made his contribution electrically with “sonic holography”.
I do not know of any real high quality experiments but rereading this thread gives me some ambition to try. The initial L-R and R-L will be created acoustically. The speakers will be located about an ears width from the main speakers and I will play with level. Perhaps there is something to learn here and it is certainly cheap enough.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
