If you have two speakers with nearly identical response curves (ditto everything else), you don't need one speaker. Also, you need proper relationship between the two speakers and the listener (not too close). I get a very realistic mono center image. It's harder to do good mono on a stereo than good stereo, in my opinion. Phillip

PS -- regarding the point of mono out of 1 speaker or two. This is an interesting question today and I'd be very interested what others think.
