Wow. That looks really cool. I've only heard an ambiophonic system and
was impressed.
If Super Stereo can recreate the sound that the mics originally heard,
what does ambiophonics do that ambisonics can't? Am i correct in my
understanding, that nothing can be utilized by ambisonic processing
during playback if the source material is only stereo?
Nope. Domestic Ambisonic decoders have a
Super Stereo mode for "decoding" stereo
sources. They also include a stereo width
control which allows the stereo image to be
compressed to mono-like or expanded into a
horseshoe around the listener. Does ambisonics cancel cross talk as well (like
ambiophonics does)?
Ambisonics and Ambiophonics couldn't be
more different. As Fons suggested, a toaster
versus a lawn mower; which is better depends
on whether you want to toast bread or to cut
grass.
I'm assuming also that Super Stereo is not
anything like the crappy DSP
modes that one found in cheap AC3 converters about 10 years back,
particularly on Sony equipment (Hall, Arena, Church) where bad reverb
was just added artificially, right?
Super Stereo adds nothing to the stereo
source.
I must suggest that it is about time you started
reading the numerous references people have
given you. Nobody can do this for you.
