I am also referring to listening to the television through earphones. If the sound was mono coming into the earphones localisation would not take place - the sound would appear to come from the middle of the inside of your head and consequently you would not be able to hear clearly the sounds around you - such as your wife calling that dinner was on the table. The point I am trying to make is that if the sound of the television coming into the earphones was binaural - you would still get dinner. >Hmm.
