This is /one/ of the cues human ears use.  Amplitude difference is
another, and tends to predominate in stereo reproduction.  Good thing,
since controlling the position of your head relative to your loudspeakers
with centimeter accuracy is a bit difficult!  But one of the reasons that
binaural recordings played through headphones sound so realistic is the
faithful reproduction of the interaural delays.
