In Reply to: RE: When I close my eyes at a live acoustic concert, the instruments sound much larger than they are. posted by Teresa on July 15, 2014 at 23:22:19
Teresa is right about the visual component, which is missing in our listening rooms. Easy enough to see in the McGurk effect--see attached youtube video.
In addition, my listening room is much too small to have a full sized grand piano playing in it, or a violin for that matter--live instruments can be very loud indeed.

If the recording is good and your system is good and set up correctly, the walls will disappear and that piano will be there in a larger space when you close your eyes.
That's assuming that you have previously calibrated your eyes and ears and know how to map sounds and sights. (I assume your ancestors learned to do this otherwise they would have been eaten and you wouldn't be here...)

You, sir, are a funny guy.
Hey, Avery Fisher once said something about the walls disappearing. I don't know if he was on narcotics at the time.
