Hi Doug and Thom,
Continuing the azimuth discussion, there appears to be two different methods of "minimizing crosstalk". One is where you measure crosstalk and adjust azimuth until the crosstalk measures the same in both channels. The second method is described here

In this second method "The aim of adjusting azimuth for minimum crosstalk is to achieve the lowest figure for crosstalk in whichever channel gives the worst result. For example 29db left and 35dB right is a better result than26dB left, and 26.5dB right, despite the fact that the difference between the left and the right is greater in the first case."
I have been using this second method to set azimuth initially. I then make small adjustments left and right around this point to see if my ears can pick a better point. My ears tell me that my initial point is usually very close to the best point.
However, if there are several null points, how does one find all of these points without spending hours and hours adjusting and listening, adjusting and listening?
Best Regards,
Roger
