HI Richard, man I didn’t understood almost anything from your message, but I opted for a Greene/Lee Neckbrace and a Diamond Encrusted Malham/Van Gogh cap at the aforementioned address (no Golden Pinnae necessary :-)! What I did understand is that head-tracking is important, we know that, and there’s not much sense in binaural reproduction otherwise. What I was trying though to say I guess in my previous message is that, if we believe that the HRTFs capture all the information we need, then we better use them, it’s not that heavy nowadays, even in real-time. And my point about first order is mainly that, if we listen to a sound from a certain direction through the respective HRTF with headphones, and we listen to its first -order encoded and decoded version, they sound quite different, spectrally and spatially.
