The one thing that the high-end headphone rig won't get you is great imaging and a huge soundstage, which (imo) is one of the best things about great stereo (and i guess home theater) systems.

Everything else, though ... yeah.

Yeah. I almost commented on the differences between headphones and a normal setup, and it's just like you said: the soundstage is spread out over a large area, towards one side, creating an actual 'stage'. That way, the instruments will sound proportional to their real size.
