<<Hmmm. All this makes me think about getting my trio of Nakamichi
CM-300s out and give them a try in mono. The first time their battery
only powering will be an advantage...>>

But those are cardioid, IIRC, & Decca relies on omnis to integrate a
stereo image out of three fairly widely separated sources. Spaced
cardioids are less coherent & more degraded phase-wise than spaced
omnis. Try it, but I think the phase incoherency, i.e. mono
incompatibility, will be unacceptable. Unless I'm wrong about the
Nakamichis being cardioids.
