Like the title says, is it just for effects, or is there some type of advantages to it?

Regular stereo should do you fine. Its honestly just to improve low bass and high treble

Wartapes is for that added oompf making everything sound fuller. And louder. Recommended use of this sound setting would be for surround sound or any decent external speakers really.
