quote:I like to hear whatever I'm playing coming out of the speaker(s) it was intended to come out of. If the sound was intended to pan from the front right to the rear left I want to hear that sound pan from the front right to the rear left, not from the front right to 'somewhere behind me'. In my setup the rear direct-rad's aren't distracting at all.
This is interesting. I've got quadpolar surrounds, which are quite diffuse, but they seem to be capable of producing distinctly localized sounds. I'm not sure how that works. For example, in Kill Bill 1, in the mosquito scene, the mosquito flies around and I can hear the path of the mosquito go behind me, seemingly distinct in position, distance and speed. It was so distinct that I (instinctively) turned to look for it (at a specific location).
