maybe you're not misunderstanding me, maybe I'm wrong... my physics of sound class... so long ago... so very long... I do know that there is a correlation between the ear distance and frequency at which you stop hearing in stereo. It's the principal that every sub woofer ever made is based on. Basically, what I was saying is, that most sound in clubs is a big loud muddy mess that would step on any subtle stereo chorus. Speaking of which, people keep talking about the "One guitar into a single combo amp" setup. I can think of a couple of dozen combo guitar amps, such as the famous Roland Stereo Chorus, that use stereo chorus effects. My first stereo guitar experience was with an Ampeg SC160 that I loved so very much.
