I have a pretty good one of those (though with regard to head azimuth, there usually is no better than the one the recording has been made on) as well as good sound cards. Dolby B and Dolby C would be available if the recording had been made with either. I could offer to try. On the downside, I have a power landline a quarter mile off which tends to be annoying for unbalanced equipment (single coil guitar pickups are sort of a non-option, and I have quite a bit of practice redoing the internal routing of audio hardware such that magnetic fields don't squeeze between connections where it counts). So there may be a use case for a very narrow 50Hz notch filter in the postprocessing.
