Some additional causes of non-central imaging include:1) speaker distance to listener not the same (to within 1cm)
2) dud tweeter or tweeter level on one side. The treble plays a disproportionate role in setting the soundstage. Tweeters can very easily be "half dead" - still function to an extent that you can hear them but not realise that their efficiency has dropped way off due to damage.
Both from personal experience! I have a very asymmetrical listening space and still achieve a quite symmetrical and centred sound stage
