Thanks for your comments. I don't know anything about monopole and
dipole in reference to speakers - I had dismissed them as audiiphool
terms. But I knwo what they imply.
The "surface effect" I think is about putting the back of the speaker
against a wall, so that the half space in front becomes a stereo
field, and the "rear" half of the sound field does not disperse but
adds to the effect. Sort of reverse PZM maybe?
Nice to be in the early part of this - I have always been a big fan
(as in "fanatic?") of MS micing, so it is nice to see it as a
listening method as well as a recording technique. Googling "M-S
Speakers" it brought up nothing but lecturere on multiple sclerosis...

one is not clicking in my mind just yet.
this seems to be very new - no mention on
any of the audio forums that I could find -
Audio Asylum, Head-fi, Taperssection,
Gearslutz, Audiogon, Stereophile, Sound
on Sound, etc.
a brief mention on Sursound - back in December.
