reb, you are very confused...

80.176.73.121

.. if you think that you can hear a drummer in the middle and a bass player on the right from a mono recording. Your equipment may be poorly set up in relation to the room so that maybe some room reflections in the bass region give you the impression that the bass is coming from the right. If you check on headphones and still hear stereo from mono then please see an audiologist. A singer to the rear is fine conceptually as mono will provide depth if not width information.However a mono recording correctly produced in a stereo system can ONLY (repeat ONLY) provide a precise central image (albeit with the potential of a sense of depth). Which is why the OP is recommended to use it to check for correct stereo imaging. If the mono signal via a 2 channel system provides a central image of no apparent width then it follows logically that stereo images will be presented in their relative correct positions.

I am afraid that everything that you say in your last two sentences has nothing to do with monophonic reproduction.
