But given the discription and use of the space I doubt it would generally be possible to *hear* a stereo image[1] - except perhaps in one or few 'lucky' locations. So this depends on the aim/use, I think. If the OP wants to sit in a specific place and hear stereo there, not caring about anywhere else, then trying for stereo may makes sense. But if they just want everyone in the space to hear music sound OK, then I suspect that stereo 'replay' as such is irrelevant. More a matter of getting a decent overall sound in the places where people may sit. Jim [1] Note that by 'image' here I don't mean the effect of having the sounds come from instruments/voices "hung on a line between the two speakers". I mean the more dimensional sense of place, distance, and acoustic you can get from something like an excellent recording of an orchestra. Few people get to hear this from a 'stereo' setup as it isn't easy to obtain. Due to the lack of simple distinguishing terms I've had to use 'stereo' above in more than one way, alas.
