Default Left & right speaker conundrum

..... I told her that ones is for
the left speaker and one for the right. "I didn't know there was a
difference", she replied.


I have found quite a few setups with left and right speakers in different
rooms, one being used as an extension speaker. Not recommended
for radio panel games, which tend to have panellists panned hard left and
right.

With music though, it's amazing what sound people will put up with so long
as they can tell what notes are being played. I once found a quite widely
released music cassette that had been mastered in antiphase. As I was
working for the company that released it, I know that only one complaint got
back to them. The complaint was from the string bass player in the band,
who had been panned centre and had listened to the tape, with some
disappointment, on a mono player.
