It won't project to a listener anything like the same sound-field your
recording was done in, but can nevertheless be effective for some kinds
of playback, esp. in combination with the more standard ways.

Ive experimented a bit with MS and DMS (double-MS) speaker-setups,
setting up four speakers [Front, L (Sides), R (Sides inverted), Back]
stacked directly on top of each other.

Using standard MS-processing, effects like moving-sound, rotating
speakers (virtual Leslie), panning, etc. come out nice, and use the room
you're in very effective.

Its possible also to project quite stable, albeit very artificial, 2d
sound-fields from eg. DMS-recordings also with the stacks, but nothing
close to the real thing.

Cheers,
