hey, I had a 50/50 chance...
I think it is 50/50. I started a thread about in head vs out of the head imaging and binaural on head-fi once years back. Some people raved about how good binaural recordings are. Just as many had my experience. Fleeting moments mostly well to the side sound sort of out there real. Anything else moves inside the head and upward. I think it has to do with whether or not pinna shapes are similar to dummy heads or not.
Almost everyone who has done binaural using tiny mikes in their own ear canal report excellent realism. If someone hasn't already, they need a set of test signals or way to measure you outer ear or something to do some DSP on binaural recordings so they sound like you used your own ears.
