two years ago, I acquired a motor cycle helmet with the intention of mounting 
eight headphones to listen to ambisonics without hrtf. i was going to use it 
with a 20 dollar dolby 7.1 usb device.I did not go head because I realized I 
would still need headtracking.
 
by the cell phone does not have to be on top of the head. it can be in a small 
bag handing at the back of the head, or even one side. it merely needs to move 
with the head.
