I have a houseguest who is a budding professional viola player. Yesterday she
played in the same room as my system, basically where my speakers are.
Great opportunity to compare to live sound, right?
It was certainly humbling. I have a pretty good system, tubes, Harbeth, blah blah blah, but MAN, there is certainly nothing like the sound of a real instrument in the room.
It's kind of nice as I can relax, enjoy my system, and stop chasing the absolute sound.
