Technically the "stereo" part means solid, all three axes. The

No, the "phonic" part doesn't mean "loudspeakers" technically, it
means an acoustic wave. Etymologically, it comes from "phone", the
Greek word for "voice". "Hooked on speakers" would be a totally
different product...

We are not talking about Greek literature, we are talking about Harry
Olson's system definitions. The "phonic" suffix of "stereophonic."
