It seems that it is a mixture of both! The following is from http://itotd.com/articles/335/
"His holophonic process starts with a type of binaural dummy head, but it reportedly records the interference pattern formed by mixing the sound with an inaudible, digitally superimposed reference signal. Zuccarelli believes that the human auditory apparatus, when listening to sounds, adds the same signal to the input, effectively decoding the interference patterns previously recorded

Unfortunately: "There is, of course, a little snag. As with all binaural recordings, holophonic sounds lose most of their spatial characteristics when played through ordinary speakers..."
Seems like it's the headphones version of QSound, which requires the listener to be perfectly situated between two speakers.
