There's always going to be the ambiguity with the front/back "blind spot" as it were that you resolve by moving your head when listening to a speaker array. I am also aware however, that this is being worked on with motion detection (for head movement) experiments in headphones. Giving you the perception of moving your head in a static 3D sound field.
The demo I went to was definitely being rendered live in reaper.

They had a more polished version of this for 3D monitoring!
