3-Dimensional Soundstage

I have appreciated a quite nice separation of instruments in my system's soundstage.  I have read many times about people experiencing depth in their music and have never appreciated this.  I was talking to an audiophile friend this week about it and he brought up the fact that recorded music is a mix of tracks and how could there be any natural depth in this?  If there was a live recording then yes, it is understandable, but from all studio music that is engineered and mixed, where would we get depth?  Are the engineers incorporating delays to create depth?

If you want a true three dimensional sound stage and imaging from two channel stereo there is really only one game in town. BACCH SP.

“ "More critically, the BACCH filter doesn’t introduce any coloration to the signal."

Not supported from the videos presented here.”

 

you can’t begin to judge the BACCH SP by a video. 

 

“Additionally, if the primary intent is to remove crosstalk, why do they recommend it for headphones where crosstalk is not an issue, and why shouldn’t one just buy the best headphones out there for far less $$$?”

headphones present different issues. Two totally different filters.
