pragmasi,
I gave ya the answer above. Okay, I gave ya a hint. What happens when the sound from the left speaker reaches the right ear? What happens when the sound from the right speaker reaches the left ear? The sound from the other speaker not gonna magically disappear. The studio tricks aren't exaggerating stuff, they are just crude noise cancellation, cept the noise is the other speaker. Those tricks let each ear hear only one speaker sort a, just like headphones. Reflections got nothing to do with it cept creating false images. Sounds real good too. Most people like it. Makes it feel like you are there. But get carried away and what's in front of you, the important stuff, starts to sound like crap.
