Exactly! I particularly noticed the effect when playing a mono source.

I have two Radios in my living room that are sync'd (volume also) as a
L/R pair. They are wired to my router. Often I notice that the
soundfield seems to drift between them, as if one suddenly is of a lower
volume than the other. After a few seconds/minutes, it self-corrects.
Sometimes this
I believe it won't be volume changes causing his, but phase drift
between the devices. This happens when they start to get out of sync.
The fact that sometimes playback eventually restarts entirely also is an
indicator for that, this is what happens when Squeezeboxes are too far
out of sync to be
Thanks pippin, so phase drift heard from a distance of about 3m would
sound like the image center had shifted and the tonal balance changed?
That's exactly what I hear. I typically listen from my own server, by
the way. Sounds like the situation -- so long as two devices are
involved -- is
Are you absolutely sure that you've got different stereo channels
selected for the two Radios? Phase drift is worst when you play the same
signal, it usually should not be as bad with stereo.
What happens is that the two signals amplify each other for some
frequencies while they cancel each
Are you listening to a mono Internet radio channel .
In some genres I would think that enough info is similar between
channels to get the effect pippin describes .
