Whenever I read something about recording music one thing that sounds out is the use of "banks" of speakers in the mastering room.
My lack of knowledge leads me to think that more then one pair of speakers is used to replay "unimixed" (not stereo, but four or five different microphone perspectives) tracks back.
My question comes done to why if even the most wealthy and extravagant of audiophiles use only one pair of speakers should multiple pairs be used in the mastering studio?
I am feeling experimental this weekend. I have two pair of identical Kef Concerto speakers. My plan was to used two speakers per channel. (By doing this I do not know what I shall achieve). My predictions is either a fuller sound (because of the presence of more violins etc) or a muffled sound. (Or hopefully not a blown amplifier)
Any views? Someone go wake Ghostinthemachine.
