Exactly!

I have some amazing classical recordings (choirs and string quartets) made with a Soundfield ST250, played back with 8 Genelecs (pantophonic configuration). It is a PITA to set up sometimes, but it does sound great. Mic placement can lead to some interesting immersive effects, e.g. in the middle of the choir or orchestra.

All the best
