We have all heard it. Your listening to a piece of music and an instrument or vocal moves well outside where your speaker is positioned. It is obvious how you can have imaging directly in front of and any where in between the speakers but how does it move outside of them.
I know that an out of phase connection on speakers will cause the sound to be very strong to the right side and left side of the speakers with no center image.
Is the material that appears to the left and right of the speakers with proper connections nothing more than parts of the music that the mixing engineer chosen to reverse the phase of in order to gain that effect?
If not, how can music come from outside of the speaker?
