Whitebread, don't be so hasty...
Dr ArthurWells:
You make audio sound way too complicated... Enscapsulated sound imaging? This aint like a network streaming media protocol. Have you ever heard any of the higher end headroom or meier products that use cross feed? Listen to a real system that uses crossfeed sometime... They aren't nearly as bad, and these users aren't as dumb as you'd like to imagine saying "gee whiz".
Go read any of Dr Meire's material on cross feed or see what tyll (or any well respected members here) have to say about the matter. For alot of people it reduces listening fatigue and makes headphones a more natural experience...
