In-Ear 5.1 surround with multi driver | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org

I have recently been looking into multi driver earphones such as the westone 4r`s. i was wondering whether they would be recognized as multi speaker surround of just as stereo. would it be possible to use the multi driver setup as 5.1 or 7.1 surround? if so would it affect audio quality in a positive way? thanks

2 - the connector would be something like this:
