         I suppose it depends on who you are aiming to reach with the 
release, most people dont have
two stereo's or if they do you cant rely on them being similar enough in 
size sound etc for any
multi-speaker sound-placement to actually work. (not to knock the idea, 
its a wicked concept)
      
         I thing there's a lot to be said for phase-placement of sounds 
with stereo,  As with binaural microphones, what you need to simulate is 
the phase differences occurring between/around your ears
as if you were present in the room. Maybe you could do a mix for 
headphones, and give people
instructions to find a room of the same propotions and get a feel for 
the space that way.
