Does anyone know of CD mixed especially for headphone?

Maybe two mics, 6 inches apart, is the correct way to record for such a playback system.


The problem is that even with artificial head recordings you don't get a proper front location. However it gets better when you use the impulse response of your own head, a source at 0° in an anechoic room, and any stereo recording with the proper interaural delay, can also be a sphere or a disk. Ambiophonics starts with a variation of that idea: Place the speakers in front of you, exacly in the same distance, and provide some kind of crosstalk cancellation (physical or electronic).
Here are two examples of removing the in-head sound of headphones (a rather diffuse effect and for that price it can't be called interesting):
