Why mono?


Can someone explain why the need for a mono cartridge when all I have to do is throw the switch on my preamp in the mono position?
Thanks

Hello everybody! I'm curious as to your speaker systems? Are you using a single speaker for true mono playback? Or are you listening to your stereo system as two channel mono? I have been listening to two channel mono and have found it to be questionable. When I sit in the stereo sweet spot I hear a bump in the lower mids. And when I sit elsewhere I hear odd phase issues that I attribute to timing errors. And the low freq is cancelled. Thoughts?
