Many people haven’t tried this, but if you play a binaural recording on an ordinary stereo, you can split the output for each side and send each extra signal to another speaker. What this does is simulate the effect of headphones, so that the sound envelops you. Left rear speaker is left; right rear speaker is right. The acoustics take care of the rest.

Two competing formats.
As you all know, there’s two competing formats poised to hit the market for HD recordings. One is endoursed by the HD Forum (formerly DVD Forum) and is called—Dadut Dada!—HD-DVD. No surprise there. The other is an independent format that has contributions from 9 companies, including Sony and Philips, and is called Blu Ray. Though some may say two formats cause confusion, I’d like to point out that the two competing audio formats, DVD-A and SACD, are taking off, both of them, much faster than anticipated, fueled by—what else?—competition!
