What I meant here was that my observations listed on the MDCP page for 
'bad' hardware in relation to the test samples there were made using my
deck and the wave files on the MDCP page, meaning that testsig-lshft.wav
gave full volume output on the level meter throughout playback, whereas
for testsig.wav (the mono original), the volume decreased as the frequency
increased.  Note that it is a bad idea to play these loud as they contain
slight clicks/pops which may damage delicate speakers.

The right channel - then the MD will receive the first left-channel sample
with the second right-channel sample, and for monauralizing, "the sample
used from the left channel is one sample earlier than the corresponding
sample from the right channel", meaning that it then puts it's second
left-channel sample with it's first right-channel sample, restoring the
original signal.  If there is a flaw in this logic (it's 11.15 at night),
please tell me.
