Seems to me the people who know are busy geeking out working on Nth-order stuff which is too complicated and expensive to be adopted widely, but which of course is great for academic papers. Meanwhile people who don't try to reinvent the wheel, make all sorts of beginner mistakes, fall flat, and in the process prove to the average audio engineer that Ambisonics is a "phasy mess with mediocre-at-best sound" that should be dismissed as of academic-interest or game-effects only application; which is only only amplified by the ivory tower seclusion of the academics doing the research. Would be much more useful if people would do research into hacking first order to become more robust, affordable, accessible, reliable, workable, such that it finally gets the reputation as a practical way of recording, processing, and distributing audio it should have. Once it's shown real mainstream potential and has critical mass, there's plenty of time to geek out again.
