Yes Dynamics are one aspect - though the best recording microphones can match the dynamics in a live event. But the signal they record is just a part of the sound intensity radiated by the instrument - the recording engineer can do his best to make the instrument sound "real" or they can (and often) choose not to - for a completely different effect.
I can't find the post - but several years back there was a "poll" as to why us "Audio Enthusiasts" participate in this "hobby". My memory serves me poorly these days, but I think that there was less than half doing it because we wanted to create a life-like event in our listening room.
A friend of mine, Keith Yates, years ago, used to hold live events at his stereo store. He related to me more than once how many audiophiles were not interested in live music.
