RE:Viewing adjusting the Stereo content of a signal when mastering

here is a good example - I use this tool when remastering my digital recorded albums. I notice that the stereo width can be offset as the anti-skating force is misaligned depending on the position of the needle in the record. Also it is fun to experiment with broadening the width a bit. When comparing a CD from master tape - versus a Record, My Denon 103D & Ortofon 2M Red (on my Grace 704/TD125 and Grado P mount Red (on my Technics SL10) all regularly have 10 or more dB less spread.

Some will argue a little separation is enough, but I am totally amazed at how different recordings are mastered in the this view - even more that in dynamics. (a typical CD and its vinyl pressing offer similar dynamics - generally poor.
