Actually that does make sense - though what it does to the resolution of localisation or whether pinna filtering will work with the drivers so close remains to be seen - exciting if they've got it to work . Im sure I read something about the US military trying this out somewhere. There is another crushingly simple and obvious way of calibrating HRTFs though which I'm not sure anyones thought of yet - whenever I say that it always turns out somebody has years ago but anyway....
