One would have to make sure the distances were exact. Time arrival
alignment differences will produce comb filtering that you don't want

If you have two speakers with nearly identical response curves (ditto
everything else), you don't need one speaker.  Also, you need proper
relationship between the two speakers and the listener (not too close).

I get a very realistic mono center image.  It's harder to do good mono
on a stereo than good stereo, in my opinion.

interesting question today and I'd be very interested what others think.
