3D imaging

I I started thinking about this yesterday. What makes speakers produce a 3D image? I figured the first thing is the recording itself. I'm guessing mic placement has a lot to do with this. Next I would imagine is room,and speaker placement. Downstream gear certainly has to have some effect on this. Does the crossover have something to do with providing this "illusion " for lack of a better term? 
     Now please understand,I don't have anywhere near the technical knowledge a lot of you folks have,so as you explain this phenomenon,please dumb it down for me! 
    Thanks in advance,

Please try the exact opposite: move them further apart and toe them in, so they cross before your head. This was a recommendation of Living Voice for their loudspeakers and it works nicely for mine. You avoid a lot of wall reflections this way and have a wider sweet spot. You have to move around a little to find the best setting.

Good luck!
