I did. It never sounds like it's in front of me. It's not capable of making sound in such a way as so the sound feels like it is directly in front of me, it's always to the sides or behind me.
Well, I tried with some one else who also didn't feel any spatial effect. I think it depends on whether the binaural recording was done with a head/ear shape similar to yours. So you'll just have to take my word for it that the audio positioning is very accurate. A good HRTF implementation should be calibrated to your head, Sony was talking about that when discussing the PS5's spatial audio: https://youtu.be/ph8LyNIT9sg?t=2979
I do feel it behind me, around my head, but I don't hear it coming from in front of me. It never crosses the threshold to be audibly in front of me because microphones cannot send sound in through my nose or vibrate my face.
The sound can sound the same as if it passed through your nose and face though. The model head they recorded this with had a different nose and face than yours, but you face could also be modelled in an HRTF.
