There are some fantastic tools for HOA in the Blue Ripple Sound suites. They are quite expensive but worth the money. I have their core suite (free) and their decoders and upmixers. The upmixers can do some impressive spreading of stereo and 5.1 into a third order mix. I use those on every project at the moment.

It would be wonderful to have such tools in the ATK though.

The IEM Ambisonic plugins are also well worth a look and are free. Their developer Daniel Rudrich is very responsive to emails too. I've had a couple of serious crashes with the visualization plugin and will report it to him but everything else seems very stable.
The shoebox room plugin is really nice. You can place an object in a room and animate it complete with doppler effect, 3D reflections and level changes.
