Main Vocals... Stereo or Mono? URGENT HELP NEEDED! THANKS :)

Forums

Hey guys, noobie here...and noobie question for you.

Should main vocals be stereo or mono in a mix? My voice sounds so much better when it is in stereo...especially with headphones. but when I play the song on speakers, my voice sounds a little hollow. What do you guys suggest?

Is it a problem with my reverb or do I have to make it mono?

can't hear vocals too well

I've got an Alesis multimix firewire board with Edirol MA 15D speakers. When i record stuff on cubase, everything sounds incredible...really, high quality sound, but when I listen to a CD or an mp3, I can barely hear the vocals...I tried going into 'settings and display' menu and adjusted the sound in every possible way, but I still have this problem.

How do you record your vocals?
