In fact, running only the left side only will not give you stereo effect, you will lose the right side sound if the right connectors are not used.
How about another sound person chiming in here with an idea or correction.

i'm not really sure about that, but since you have more experience than i do you maybe right, but anyway i've been running just one channel for years now and my left and right ch. on my main out has the same volume level, and if i pan it to either left or right or if i used my optical cd/dvd drive cleaner, i get the the right result , when prompted by the cleaner, i maybe wrong..but i do get stereo effect..
