I can't name a recording but I know that in 1881 Clement Ader installed 
pairs of carbon mics on a Paris opera stage for telephone subscribers to 
listen in. It was esperimental, btu I'd expect a 2-mic recording to 
either immediately preceed ro follow that date.

I have no idea, but thought someone on this list might.  I know of instances where two microphones were used in recording, but each outputting a signal to separate turntables.
