RE: Ponders to question

#1 two identical signals meeting at 180 degrees would be reversed in polarity, No? That's what I meant by a strong mono signal.

#2 Consider standard "in the box" thinking about null points and first reflection points. They all meet at the ear and the brain/ear interface puts them together.

#3. The reflection off the panels is a bonus. You can place a single vertical panel and still hear differences although it will not be as marked. The key is the blockage must block left signal from right signal! Few cabinets or racks are set up so

As my contention goes, the left /right common signals meeting in the middle are never really precisely equal. The left channel may be slightly stronger at a particular frequency bandwidth and the right at another. This,in my hearing, causes a slight wavering, if you could say, in the precise center image. Oh, its not really serious, for the most part, but with the system in place focus becomes rather startling. Its like switching from an Instamatic camera to a good SLR (whoops giving away my age)To be honest in going to CES since 1982, I have never heard imaging how I can get it no matter what the system cost was.

Of course YMMV and FWIW

That being said,a couple big pieces of cardboard and you can easily try this. We will wait for our French audiophile to report back ( hopefully). No cardboard big enough?: stack a few boxes on a bar stool
