RE: I heard a live violin and was struck by how powerful it sounded, hi fi suffers in comparison...

Yes, which goes back to your point below about the quality of the recording being key.

Seems to me there is probably no perfect way of recording a sound from a single instrument like the violin. Can one close mic something AND also capture the effect of the room with other mics? I don't know enough about the recording process to understand what the limitations must be.
