The best recordings always create the auditory illusion of a greater space than the physical confines of your room. When you close your eyes, you are transported to the size of the recorded space, however large that may be.
That was always the magic of hearing HP's systems at Sea Cliff - the walls of his room disappeared and you found yourself laughing out loud hearing the music in a huge apparent space with a clearly defined width and depth. While that happened more frequently using classical content, there were some pop recordings that created the illusion. I remember first hearing Madonna's Frozen on the big Nola Grand References. The apparent stage width was about forty feet and the hall as deep.
