Recordings have to be specially recorded and processed for that. There are however many older recordings that were made without the use of such technology and are expected to be played on speakers in 5.0.
- kuschku 5y agoYou can apply the same virtually as well: simulate a raytraced environment with 5.0 speakers and furniture, simulate an HRTF, and generate the resulting 2.0 audio. It's possible to do this in a way that's not in any way distinguishable from a real 5.0 setup
- Mediterraneo10 5y agoI don’t think it is realistic to expect an ordinary home listener of some old SACD 5.0 recording to carry out some elaborate simulation involving the specific furniture in his home, just to listen to something on headphones.
