I currently have Shure EZB/O boundary mics on the front and rear outside
walls of my house for listening from inside to the wildlife in my front and
back yards. I get almost no wind noise, unless it's really blowing hard,
and the sound quality is good. I hear the front yard in my right computer
speaker, and the back yard in the left.
However, what I get are two very different sound sources. Rather than
sounding like stereo, it sounds more like two separate mono sources.
Question: If I want good stereo separation, how far apart should I place
the mics? At one point I had them on the same back wall about 20 feet
apart, and I wasn't satisfied with the sound there. Should I move them
closer together?
