We were taught the 1:3 rule in audio...

If the distance from the microphone to an "unwanted source" is three times the distance asthat from the microphone to the source phasing likely wont be an issue.

There's always caveats with engineering but it's a decent rule of thumb assuming equal volume sources... I can imagine it's not too hard to detect that anyway, weve been able to do realtime fft for a very long time.
