Quasi-biaural, in my book. To be really binaural you need to record
in a real or simualted ear canal with pinnas. But all the
quasi-binaural systems (disk, sphere, eyeglass clips, mikes on
headphones) provide most of the realism of binaural when heard on
headphones, and better frequency response when reproduced on speakers.
I record with omnis on shoulder pads; kind of a stretched
quasi-binaural system, not exactly "spaced omnis," since my neck is
in between.
