"Not sure what this has to do with anything. But no one familiar with live music would ever state that *all* live music is sonically superior. It varies as much as anything depending on venue, performance, the actual instruments used and where you sit."
Great - you agree with me!
"It's only the holy grail when it is played well in an excellent venue with excellent instruments fom an excellent seat. Then it is the holy grail."
And what percentage of the musical recordings that exist in the world can be held up a representative samples of the industries efforts at capturing this holy grail?
"Studio "reproductions?" Do you mean studio "productions?" If so apples and oranges. There is no live reference for studio productions."
Studio productions can work for me. Of course it's apples and oranges. So we agree again!
"Perhaps you need to get better seats and go to better venues and see better musicians playing better instruments.
There is nothing magical about music *just* being live. "
No I'm perfectly happy with most of the live events I attend inspite of the sound not being as "good" as the sound of most studio recordings on my home stereo system.
