There are two easily reproduced experiments first carried out by
prominent members of this group which put these effects into
perspective. They are the
Greene/Lee Neckbrace
and
Malham/Van Gogh Experiment
The first shows 'real life' Fixed Head Localisation (which matched
HRTFs address) is TERRIBLE. Many people can't even distinguish
back/front with perfect (measured on their own noggin) HRTFs ... or
even in 'real life' with a Greene/Lee neckbrace. Anyone who has done
fixed head localisation experiments finds this out real quick.
The second shows that even the tiniest amount of head movement
improves localisation immensely and any ambiguity due to mismatched
Pinnae etc (and YES, the pinnae colouration effects are chaotic) are
INSTANTLY resolved. No 'training' is necessary with head movement.

Learn to use (others') HRTFs!
Learn to use the Force! :-D =-O
