To make sure you understand the impact of using stereo versus mono properly, I will explain the difference.
My subs use both channels of stereo audio. If you play them on stereo speakers or headphones, they'll give you the whole message, but you won't get the full intended impact or effect unless they're on opposite ears.
If you use it in only mono, however, parts of the script audio just plain will not be there. The way I weave the audio allows the program to still work, but it will be at about 45% of full impact as opposed to using it over stereo, with the speakers properly positioned.
The loss is much less when you use stereo speakers even when they are not optimally positioned, because both channels are being reproduced still, so there's no audio being outright lost. What's lost is the stereospatial effects, unless you use headphones, or have the speakers positioned at opposite sides of your head.
