Yup. Sounds around and behind my head.
Which; as you implied, disappear when copying the CD to a data reduced format, Mini Disc/MP3 ETC.
The effect doesn't totally disappear with compression, at least not on
Spotify at their highest (crap) bitrate. Try "Amused to Death - Roger
Waters" which is done particularly well.
Yeah, Pink Floyd have played with this stuff before, on 'Wish You Were
Here' though the exact system used is not credited, and could be an
extreme L/R phase shift on the start of the track.
Ain't two speaker stereo great!
Dark Side Of The Moon is pretty good through six speakers:-)
Yup, got that on SACD and specially went out on eBay for a used Denon
DVD/SACD player with discrete multichannel outputs to play it through my
six speakers. I think I prefer the sound of my LP copy to be honest.
There is also something called "8D Audio", Binaural 3D google tells me,
which is meant to be effective on headphones.
Some fancy mobile phones and earbuds do some post edit sound processing
to match peoples earlobes, using a phone camera to take a 3D image of
the ear shape to further tune the psychoacoustics.
Curiously the new iPhone 14 features this and so has personal crash
detection, which presumably comes into play for the owner when you unfortunately drive over them, them being completely oblivious to their surroundings?
Next addition to a mobile phone will be an airbag.
Excuse me while I ring the patent office ...
