Scott,

Um, the Hass effect (first sound arrival registers)? This is said to 
be what makes the stereo effect work on loudspeakers indoors but not 
outdoors or in an auditorium. This is why cinemas use multi-channel 
sound.

I don't think the Haas effect works with binaural kistening, but I 
don't know how to check this out.

Delays in mixers came after my time in pro sound, but I'm told that 
the BBC Proms mixes use delays. Perhaps that's why I find them a bit 
clinical. You can hear every instrument including the harps :-) but 
you can't hear the Albert Hall.
