Here's a couple of links of sounds that seem to be at your left, your right and behind you.

Of course, to have total effect, have your headphones on and turn the volume up a little.

Some people call it holophonics.

That is awesome. But for some reason I can only get to the 2nd link. The first requires login

Pretty cool the second link. Couldnt get the first to work, and i do have an account there.

How well did it work for others? for me it sounded like the sounds were coming from the back of my neck, or the top of my head. Not from in front of my face like I was hoping. But I was pretty surprised at first at the effect. Would be neat to implement in gaming.

Theres a sticky binaural thread in the Music section of this site. Check it out.

Fun. It actually created the... shiver I get when the scissor or razor comes to my left ear and left ear only.
