Have to disagree there, binaural recording had nothing to do with listening to the recordings over speakers, it was a recording technique to allow headphone users to hear the sound naturally rather then inside the head.
Essentially a Dummy head was made....


That came long after the original use of the term as binaural recording.

But I do remember the dummy heads. They were even used in attempts to recreate for speaker use at some point also. Didn't work all that well, actually.

In both cases, I am now old enough to make the claim, "Hell, I was THERE!"
