i would agree that headphones are, by nature, immersive and 'other-worldly'. Pink Floyd music is most definitely not meant to be 'conventional....and does compliment the headphone perspective on music. some of the 'stuff' Pink Floyd puts into the mix can be much more easily percieved on good headphones than on a typical high end system.
OTOH my 'conventional' system excells at doing space. my sources are particularly high resolution. i feel that i get the best parts of what a headphone can do in my system plus the best attributes of a conventional full range system. but....the combination is a hard one to pull off and not cheap. headphones, for Pink Floyd music in particular, get you lots of the picture with much less effort and dollars.
