Back in the day, when you were demoing a pair of speakers, all other speakers needed to be removed from the room.
The reason: If there were other undriven speakers in the room they would - rather like a microphone - pick up the sound of the speakers that were playing, and radiate it back into the room again. This in turn was picked up by the speakers which were playing.
The net effect "ruined" the quality of the sound produced.
So, if you are now using your HT set up for stereo, has anyone found this a problem and has a solution been found that I'm not aware of? - other than having two rooms (not always practical)
