Perhaps you would like to explain "true" 3D with 2 speakers ?  There is no
such thing. True 3D is only accomplished with Surround Sound, something whci is 
NOT supported by the GUS. What the GUS does use us binormial Sound Enhancement.
I'm not too sure what it is, but I read it in the GUS SDK. This is also
a 2D stereo enhancement. To be honest, I don't know how well the GUS 3D effects
stack up but SRS has been around for a LONG time (5-10 years?) and has been
proven technology. Qsound has also been here for awhile but I haven't been
convinced by Qsound
