""Pinpoint Imaging" is a phenomena of speakers and recording studios, not of live music. "
As Alex Trebeck would say, "ooooh, sorry".
You clearly have no experience conducting an orchestra or concert band or even a smallish 10-20 piece ensemble, 'cause if you had, you'd know that it's easy to pick out the exact player who goofed. I know - it's happened to me many times.

We are not all on the podium. The hall, where people sit, does it: it homogenizes the sound, yes like milk...
I agree with you. :)
Yes, we hear directional cues both laterally and depth-wise, but the in-your-face 3D effect I've heard with some small mini-monitors does not sound "live" to me.
And believe me, that was no fun.I think we have a different definition of pinpoint imaging. You seem to be talking about sensing location, which I have no problem with. What I'm talking about is the small (which some in this thread consider "right sized") 3D holographic image that some recordings and systems give.
It's a spectacular sound-effect, and can be mesmerizing. But I've never heard it when I've listened to live music, whether or not the music is amplified.

"And believe me, that was no fun."
LOL
That's the funniest thing I've seen all day, and I'm glad you're OK!!
Back on topic, audiophiles yap on about imaging, soundstage, yada-yada. Can y'all say "two speakers"? It ain't real, and will never be as "pinpoint" as the real thing. That was my point.
