The mono switch is very important for mono records, in my experience. Firstly, I hear less surface noise and it is uniform in both ears, what makes it easier to ignore. Secondly, I am listening mono with only one speaker. Compared to a stereo setting whereby the signal comes from one of the channels, the summed signal seems richer and more dynamic somehow.

The switched (summed) mono function, L+R/2 equates to L/2 + R/2.

Any difference signal or non-common signal (due to some form of error) is therefore divided by 2, but the signal common to both channels is not.
That none should be able to buy or sell without a smartphone and the knowledge in how to use apps
