Is Mono all that bad if the speaker is very good?

Ever since reading the review of Thiel CS1.6 by Tom Miller,I have been wondering how good one of these speakers will work alone.Great for female voice,does things easily.separates instruments like no other,very low noise floor,flat treble,great for piano,sublime low level,dynamic range,simply great.He may even use it as a center speaker.Well, now if I use just one in Mono,will it sound at least 75 percent as good? I am rather disappointed with the budget speakers auditioned so far except for one acoustic suspension design which was more musical than the other 15.So,instead of spending a grand for something I dont really like, why not buy one Thiel.Is that dumb?I am yet to see an honest opinion by audiophiles on Mono.They like stereo more than Home Theatre,I guess.Thanks and Regards
