Zombie thread!

 

Soundstage only exists with headphones for binaurally recorded material. For stereo content mixed for loudspeakers I think people are usually talking about some kind of "fidelity", maybe instrument separation, etc.

heh.... zombies are awesome.

 

my friend was talking to me about his akg k550 & saying how you can really tell where each sound is coming from and where it moves to. this is using flac files, not binaurally. so i was thinkin that has to be soundstage right?

Seems so. However, going by my brief impressions of the AKG K550, I can't say it did sound localization very well. IME open headphones in general do a much better job in that regard. There are a few exceptions of course.
